Well you are right, a cam cover cannot cause over heating. Stupid garage

Is the engine using any coolant? Is the cooling fan coming on? Should engage around 96 ish.

It doesn't use coolant an the oil and water arnt mixing cooling fan does work tho should the  temp fluctuate between 90 and a 100

My 2.2 sits at 85 temp wise, only goes above 90 in summer stop start traffic. How is the main coolant pipe near battery, does it squeeze? Any over pressure? Are both the bottom and top pipes into the rad both hot?
