Well, first of all...I have an 89 Shadow and the little 4 bangers in them are know to run a lil on the hot side. But if your car is obviously overheating, other than the "my engine is hot after I drive it", then I would start with the cheapest things first. While you engine is cool, take the radiator cap off and make sure you have enough Anti-freeze. After that put the cap back on and start the motor..check to make sure your water pump is spinning/belt is good. Hey, don't laugh...you would be surprised at how many car problems I have solved for friends because of loose worn belts. If all is good...then I would check the thermostat. Other than that it could be a faulty water pump, readiator, temperature sensor, cooling fan or resistor. Hope this helps.
You can find the 1991 Dodge Shadow thermostat in the thermostat housing. The thermostat housing will be on the front of the engine.
how do i change a water pump in a 1991 dodge shadow with a 2.2 liter does it require an internal water pump

Yes, but there is no need to do so.
Probably in the fuel tank

It is overheating or the oil preasure is low. It probably needs a new engine.
Most likely as they (mostly) shared the same drivetrains
under the car by the passenger side rear wheel
