Michael;
        I think your original problem is a radiator that has lost cooling
efficiency. I took mine out and had it professionally "blasted" out. Now
you might have an internal head gasket leak. If you mechanic has an
emissions analyzer he can stick the wand in the overflow tank and sniff
for combustion gasses.
        First have the radiator cleaned out. DO NOT just flush the system
yourself.
Drive Safely & Good Luck
