Double check the levels and mixtures!!! Too much oil can make the engine overheat. Make sure your oil level is at the correct level by checking the fill on the dip stick. Check the oil level when the car is off and sitting for a few minutes to let the oil drain to the pan. Check the coolant level and it's very important to have a 50/50 mix. Meaning 50% coolant and 50% "distilled" or clean water. If the mixture is not correct, it will not have the properties to cool correctly.

No knocking noise but it does hiss like you can hear it and sounds as if I hose is clogged but we are not sure and the low oil pressure sign comes on will it make the car keep running hot cause after we put 2 quarts of oil and filled the coolant to capacity and it was fine yesterday when he drove it to work when he got in it this morning to come home after driving for about 20 minutes it started to run hot
