The Thermostat change did not work. After 20 minuntes the coolant still boils out of the coolant reservoir cap (which is spring loaded). They say the rad fan is working and head bolts are tight. No CO2 is detected in the coolant but mechanic says the only possible cause is combustion gas/heat leaking out via a failed gasket or cracked cylinder. I am looking for other possible causes??
