could be several things.
1. water pump going bad sucking air thru shaft seal,new pump.
2. raditor plugged up, clean it out.
3. blown head gaskets, replace.
4. fan belt loose, tighten.
5. fan to small, get bigger one with better blades.
6. Lower raditor hose colasped, replace.
these are just a few ideas and a bad thermostate can screw you up.
