With the overheating... has this vehicle ever had green, (ethylene glycol) coolant installed in it?
What brand parts did you install? These things are very fussy when it comes to tune up parts, especially plugs, cap & rotor. Have you checked fuel pressure and leakdown?

Nice job newguy & Rich! One more thing... the green protects cast iron from corrosion very well, but it does not protect aluminum from corrosion. Really only 3 things to be concerned about in the 4.3L: radiator, heater core, and lower intake manifold Dexcools ability to protect aluminum doesn't last forever, it needs to be flushed every 3 years or 36K miles, which is still cheaper than flushing the green every year, like it should be.
