If the water pup is the only thing that you haven't changed. I can only guess that it may be going bad. I have seen pumps go out sooner than that from being defective. I don't know what kind of warranty you have on it but if you have a lifetime warranty. I would just pull it and get a new one since it won't cost anything other then you time.

I think it's the ac fan it doesn't work when it gets warm...n it's not the head gasket, ive already looked into that...and if the fan doesn't work I'll try a new water pump and see what happens...anyone know where you can get an oem style ac fan????

I think the new aux fan fixed it...it does run above 210 but the needle is just on the otherside of the 210 mark on the gauge probably no more then 220 at the hottest but i think it is completely fixed now
