If the coolant isn't boiling, the engine is not overheating. There's a good reason today's temperature gauges have "cold" and "hot" indications, not degree measurements. "Hot" on a gauge for a cooling system with a 15 pound pressure cap is close to 260 degrees. People would get a case of hives if they knew how hot their coolant actually gets in a traffic jam with the air conditioner working hard, but the engine strolls merrily along!
