+1 I wrestled with the same issue until 3 weeks ago at which time Bill suggested this solution and Bless him for making it. The "nail" inserted in the overflow pipe has worked wonders. My engine is a recent rebuild, however without the proper amount of coolant on trips the engine got hotter than hades. Two days after the "nail" went in we had a 95F degree day I drove the car for forty minutes. When we came home the water and temp was where it should be and the motor wasn't a pizza oven. Thank you Bill.
