Okay guys ready for the problem? The vechicle in question will start to overheat within 5 minutes of starting the engine. Gauge rises to hot and shortly there after coolant starts going into the coolant recovery tank in boiling spurts. Funny thing is the radiator never even gets warm.Both hoses are new (no chance of collapsing),thermostat was replaced with factory specified temp. thermostat (when changed the engine was still hot and the thermostat was still open but closed as it got to room temp.).also changed the radiator cap. So the question is why is the radiator staying cold but the engine itself is boiling? Next installment should include what my mechinic neighbor thinks is the problem vs. what I think is the problem.Just looking for as much input as to what everyone thinks the problem is before I start ripping things apart. Thank you, Bill M.
