the head gasket was changed and now my radiator is not working right. it heats up and builds up pressure but the heat gauge will bury itself in the red but blow cold air. it flucuates back and forth

you have overheated it again and may have done more damage. take it back and have them test it again. do not take it back till it is done completely
