Hi I need some help on an issue with my Bronco 2. My mechanic repaired and fixed the a/c system and it caused it to start to overheat then he put a new radiator ( new but has been sitting around the shop ) and still overheats. the fluid in the radiator is not bubbling up like is the usual sign of a blown head gasket but maybe it's not bubbling up because it's a thicker radiator I'm not sure. There is no fan shroud on this truck I ordered one in ( since the mechanic said that this is worth trying to start with) but they haven't worked on it since the part came in most of the shop has had covid all last week. He said the fan is working like it should and it shouldn't be the fan they also recently changed the thermestat switch. Does it sound like its a blown head gasket? Why else would it be overheating? The heat gauge goes up pretty quick even if you don't stop at red lights or anything.
