OOPs! I also forgot to have check for a head gasket leak these can be hard to 
find and may only show up under  heavy load but they can sure run the temp up 
when they do leak. The funny thing is you won't be losing any water its the 
hot gases frpm the cylinders that get into the cooling system and cause the 
problem. You can fill the radiator to full keep some water ready and if its an 
automatic put it in reverse and put a good load on the engine while watching for 
bubbles in the water. You have to make that you keep the radiator at the top. 
If you see bubbles then go to your nearest parts house and get new gaskets 
have the head/s resurfaced and then hope it works.
