Default radiator problem

i was driving just now and my car over heated, i popped the hood with my car on and saw coolant spewing from my reservoir. i waited 10 mins for a cool down, checked for leaks from radiator and hoses and nothing. so i refilled my raditor and reservoir so i can get home and same problem ( reservoir spewing coolant and overheats )

im thinking i have preasure problems maybe change my rad cap. has this happen to anyone ? i drive 93 del sol si, thanks for any help

Take the cap off and let the motor run idle for a while to let any air out. Make sure you did not overfill the reservoir. This should fix your problem let me know if it works.
