Idle Overheat?
I looked through the stickied links and didnt find anything relating to my problem so i hope u guys dontr mind this question.
My engine was overheating the other day and i chekced to see the problem and it was only my water pump. I changed it with new one and installed a new thermostat at the same. All is well and there is no coolant leaking anywhere now. The problem is when my truck is running, the engine stays at a cool 100 degrees but when its idling at a light, stop sign, whatever... it starts climbing towards the 125 degree mark and doesnt cool down unless i turn the heat on HIGH or start rolling again? I havent checked any of the sensors yet light the thermostat, coolant temp. sensor or anything before i know i have to. Anyone have a quick and easy answer as to whjat the problem might be before i jump into it. Thanks for your time, its appreciated... p.s. - No error codes came up on the OBDI diagnostic check

similar sitch in a 93 4.0, ended up having burned the sensor, finally replaced it and all was well, worth a check. was overall unhappy with heat management, put on a rocket city cnc oversize thermostat housing and a 180f thermo to get the cooling I wanted (AZ heat)
