@granny102,
you have a 26 year old radiator.
@sullyfish6,
used to happen to my Valiant. I'd turn on the heater full blast to cool down the radiator. Hell in the summer.
Flush the radiator.
Clean between the cooling fins as well.
Try some radiator cleaner, although as rockhead said... it is 26 years old. cleaning it might cause it to leak.
