If the timing is off the engine may run hot. If there is a vacuum leak it will run hot. The engine may need a cooling system flush. The thermostat may need replaced.You need to pull the plugs and check them to see if they are showing evidence of over heating.Check the valve clearances too.If you can not do it yourself, find some one who can give your car an old fashion tune up. Which should include valve lash adjustment. The odds are that the dealers will not have any one who knows how to work on it, nor many chain service places. You are going to have to find an old school mechanic or learn yourself.</blockquote>
