Check to make sure your fan is working ok. Also, if you have a clutch fan you should run a shroud.

BTW, you can tell if your heater core is leaking if the passenger side carpet is wet or if you see steam coming out of the defrosters.

Also, if you smell coolant that is a sure sign you have a leak.
