it sounds like the thermostat, basicly, the water flows around the engine and then pases through the thermostat, if the water isnt hot enough it sends it back round the engine 1 more time, when it reaches 100 degreas the thermostat opens to let the water through to cool in the radiator so basicly your thermostat is stuck closed so the water cant cool
