Hadn't thought of the fans being the prob.

If it overheats at idle then you can test for adequate airflow through the radiator and capacity. Run the engine to the point that it's starting to overheat and run a hose all across the radiator cooling fins. If you can bring the temps down to normal then the problem is either in the fan or the radiator size.
