My 1486 has been running hotter than normal and today it almost touched the red. Did not come out the overflow so was going to look in the radiator and when I cracked the cap, it shot up about 10 ft and all the coolant shot up also. When cooled down it took about 5 gal to fill it back up. Have already changed the theromstat, new fan belts, washed radiator out thru the fins with a pressure washer, changed the fan blades from a 6 blade to a 8 blade (which made it run a little hotter yet. Don't understand that one) and radiator cap. Looking in the rad., it is flowing and no air bubbles or foaming or pressure untill it gets hot . Thought about replacing the water pump but no leaking and it is flowing good when you rev up the motor. What do I need to do????
