If it hot outside (70 degrees or higher) and I'm driving in the city my 1987
SAAB 9000 gets close to the Hot indicator but if I drive two or more blocks
without stopping then it goes back in the middle. Any ideas?

It could be the cooling fan or its thermostat that isn't working.

I would try to connect the fan directly to the 12V ( but first disconnect
the thermostat ) and see if it's spinning.
