i have just about finished doing this my car and let me tell you......never again if you want to do it right you will have to remove the intake manifold, also replace them with brass ones and use plenty of stag or take it to a mechanic because its migraine

Replace ALL the welsh plugs while you are about it. If one has failed, the rest can't be too far behind.

Your overheating problem is probably because you are running a thermo fan (that's my experience, anyway).

Because a thermo fan relies on on air moving through the radiator only when the car is moving. This isn't always guaranteed. Air can escape out under the car rather than pass through the radiator.

The factory fan is always working, and always draws air through the radiator.
