I run my heater when my truck starts to overheat. It drops the temp about 15 degrees. I carry duck tape, water. If things really get bad I remove the thermostat. The water will circulate faster and cooler. Also, run premium gas. Less vapor lock. Run at maximum torque. A poor man's radiator flush is to pour a gallon of muriatic acid in the radiator. It cleans it up.
