2003 Voyager 3.3 Overheats When Driving And Cools Down When Idling?
When I drive car it heats upwithin 2-3 minutes to the point over overheating(red zone on gauge). I pull over and let engine run in park and it will cool down to normal range. Fans work, heater does not heat up inside car, inlet hose to heater seems firm and outlet side is soft. Looking thru rad cap with engine running, water pump seems to be flowing lots of water andthermostat is opening.

Is your parking brake engaged? Make sure the e-brake is not engaged or needing adjustment. If that's not the case, check to see if your brakes are dragging. You may have a brake caliper that is not releasing when you take your foot off of the brake.
The only reason I can think of why a vehicle would heat up while driving and not in park would be too much resistance when you're driving. You're overworking the tranny and engine if you have dragging brakes.
