It sounds like you've got radiator trouble, not something internal with the engine. Once the heat goes into the coolant the radiator has to get rid of it. Sediment deposits in the radiator tubes can interfere with the coolant/air heat exchange and the coolant goes back into the engine too hot. Do an aggressive chemical flush or replace the radiator.
