Feel the upper and lower rad hose see if they are hot or cold will let you k know if the thermostat is stuck closed, also the 01's have a big issue with buildup in the cooling system, what color is the coolant? Also is there an engine light on? Sounds like a thermo stat but id start at the basics and run a cooling test on it local auto part stores rent it out
