No, it doesn't work that way. You do get the flow with a blown head gasket but that exaust heats up the sending unit saying it is boiling but it actually is not having the antifreeze yet warm, the only place it actually gets hot is at the sending unit and that is from the exaust gasses flowing by the sending unit and making a fals temp reaning and it is the exaust gases that are doing the pushing of the antifreeze out and not the antifreeze expanding. What you will see with a blown head gasket is if you take the cap off the radiator and then start the engine you will imedatly see small bubles in the radiator while you see the flow of the antifreeze and in 5 minuted time the exaust gas put thru the leak will be starting to displace the antifreeze in the block-head and that is what puts the flow over the top, the pump keeps trying to refill the block and that makes the exaust push out the antifreez over the top of the radiator that much faster. First time had a replaced head with new gasket installed, second time replaced with used engine and found out after it was installed that it had the same problem with a new head already on it and everytime at less than 5,000 mile it would happen again.
