Is the fan coming on? When the engine starts to run hot and the thermostat opens a electric fan on the back of the radiator is supposed to come on. How about the water pump? If you have too much water mixed in the antifreeze will make it run hot. You shouldn't be adding any water because the inside of the engine might rust. It could be that also
