you did not say if it was blowing water out it may need sending unit for temp guage.

what i am getting at is it really running hot or temp guage may be lying to you there not real accurate. always like manual temp. unit.

Yeah, I was going to say that it would be a good idea to try out an aftermarket gauge.

It could be any number of things said, if all else fails - have the radiator flushed and checked, and it could even be the water pump, I have had impellers go bad on me, see if you can grab the pulley on the pump and move it up and down, if you can it might not be any good, even though its not leaking or anything, especially if someone before you neglected the cooling system.

we filled up radiator first eng off bleeder backed out 1 or 2 rounds. then fill at thermostat housing cap when it has liquid coming out of bleeder close it. crank it and continue filling give it few min.
