    Phosphate scale may have blocked off the passages in the radiator, which may need to be rodded or replaced:

    Only use a 50/50 mixture of the recommended antifreeze and distilled water.

    Does it have an electric fan and is it working or if it has a shaft driven fan it could be a bad fan clutch. Remember there is always a list of things that can cause one problem you just check them all and cross them out till you find out which one is causing the problem.
