Do you have a water temp gauge too and is that moving hotter?? Your oil filter or other parts of the oil system could be partially blocked thus slowing oil flow. Since it sounds as if this is a new concern and that it has run cooler, I would first change the oil and filter and see if it is still running hot. If so, I would look at system for restrictions, perhaps the pump is wearing out...If you just want to lower the temp...then change oil and filter and replace oil with synthetic (sp) oil. I use mobil 1..it is amazing the effect that will have on oil temp.

not starting, could be bad ground...my guess is a poor connection at the key switch or Solenoid going bad....

Also, battery might be bad....it will take a short charge but has no cranking power unless you just charged it...I had one do that, I wore it down by giving it fast charges (start) on my battery charger because I was in a hurry and did not want to wait for a slow charge. you will need a load tester to check the battery.

Good luck
