check the seal on the cap of the expansion bowl off the rad. if this is gone engine will overheat, hopefully its this problem, very cheap to fix, new cap no probs

RE: over heating problem
if you're worried bout a head gasket, take out one spark plug at a time, and do a compression test to be sure. The easiest way to tell is antifreeze in the oil, your oil will be a milky white, or have bubbles. Also, coolant flushes are really good thing to do, especially after the winter, I do mine every spring. Make sure your thermostat is good, in that it's not stuck closed.
