Overview
Current:
Replaced thermostat and filled w/coolant
Took car on the road,
Strong idle (park and in gear);
Good power (low speeds and high)
Issue:
Temp rose to 'HOT' after 15 mins driving
Turned on Heater to high, but only getting really cold air
No visible external leaks
Coolant bubbling/boiling in reservoir after stopping.
Why no heat if engine is HOT? Pump or head gasket?
Recent past:
6 mos ago, Car ran til overheated, spewing antifreeze out from overflow reservoir (was driven on very low level of coolant) under pressure - Car parked until now
Thanks for any help
