Additional thought: Check the last two digits on your cooling system cap. If they are lower an "-04", you could have a simple cap failure. Both the cap and tank can be pressure tested if you can get access to something like a Stant cooling system pressure tester; but if not and the cap number is low, you would be spending about $100 to buy a tool to test a $17 part. Can it and get a new cap if it is a low number, but be sure to either evacuate or burp the system to get any air out.
