Could be air in the system and a blown headgasket, cracked head or block and intake leak -check oil if its mixing with coolant and vice versus. Might want to block and pressure test it-

I would do the block and pressure test even if there is no evidence of oil and coolant mix.
Here is a video that shows the testing.
