your thermostat is stuck in the closed position, replace it, anytime a hose blows off, this is usually the case, remember when replacing it that the spring part of it goes towards the motor
I would check the thermometer in the front of the block. It is the regulator for the temperature of the antifreeze that gets shot into the block itself. With older vehicles and this time of year many people will be having these radiator/thermometer problems.
you have air trapped in the heater cores, front and back. You need to burp system or take to a shop and have them flush cooling system and use their vacuum system to purge the air. Should cost $60. Make sure they have vacuum system.
Or go to our site and read file on how to burp air from cooling system.
you have air trapped in the engine. very common. park van uphill, fill radiator & reservoir, turn on heater, leave cap loose. wait for engine to warm up to burp air.
