First, we only recommend direct fit parts. As far as the problem, it sounds like the head gasket isn't sealing. As a result, compressed air from the cylinders is getting into the cooling system and doing what you described. When the engine is cold, remove the radiator cap and start the engine. If coolant comes shooting out, that is the problem.
