I fought my Dodge Ram 1500 with a 4.7 for a year. Did the normal stuff - new radiator cap, thermostat, flush the radiator. Nothing ever solved the problem. Had the block/head checked by checking for combustion gasses in the coolant. No combustion gasses. Radiator had a little seep where the core meets the side tank and since it was under a lifetime warrenty I took it out and got a new one. STOPPED THE OVER HEATING. Even though I had flushed the radiator it wasn't allowing coolant to flow through enough to keep the engine cool. Flow of coolant in the radiator was from the drivers side to the passenger side. Was warm by touch of hand only on drivers side 1/4. The cores in new radiators are so small they plug easily. Replaced radiator was only 2 years old - installed after I had hit a deer. Was made in Mexico. New radiator wasn't from Mexico - China maybe. I had put a bottle of stop leak into the system thinking I had a head gasket leak eariler. Probably didn't help the situation.
