I've got a 90 Spec 8V GTi (PB engine code) and it's getting hot in traffic. It's not the stat, and it's not the rad, as both have been changed. The coolant isn't sludge. What could be causing the car to overheat? Timing too advanced or fuel mixture? The other option I can see would be the fan, but it's coming on before the engine gets silly hot and so the only problem with it could be that it's not shifting enough air.
