Changed thermostat, radiator and coolant temperature sensor.

Got it.
The next step is to do a leak down test on the cylinders to check and see if there is a leaking head gasket.
that is where you insert shop air into each cylinder one at a time and watch for movement of the coolant in the radiator.
