I have replaced the radiator and now the termostate and when the car runs it still over heats the upper hose builds up so much pressure it appear to want to burst

Hi drpaslumbo,

If proper bleeding had been done after replacement of the thermostat and radiator, bad news, most likely the head gaskets are bad.

Testing would have to be carried to determine if the head gaskets are bad.
