There are up to 25+ symptoms
of engine overheat.
flushing only works on toilets.
My guess, is it's leaking coolant somewhere.
There should be no pressure next morning.

Cold water does not build pressure.
but if the vacuum breaker in the cap fails
this can cause vacuum pressure, that sounds like
air pressure. but is not. Reverse
Does engine run ok.
have full power,
no pinging
no water leaks.
if it leaks say where exactly.
locations matter,
1: steam blasting in to side, expansion tank running?
2: steam from tail pipe end.?

here are 27 symptoms or causes.

Replace the radiator cap first, it's time anyway, then thermostat if needed.

    thermostat, if old its bad, they are short lived devices.

2001 Dodge Dakota Sport What is the speciation for the fluids, how much too use?

water always goes in the radiator up to the radiator cap and the overflow bottle up to the full mark or about 1/2 way. The fluid capacities for your vehicle are in the owners hand book, workshop manual,(genuine or after market) or available on line under specifications for your make of cart.

I've changed the head gasket (top overhaul),the thermostat,the radiator cap and serviced the radiator where the water is flushed out and replaced and checked for no leaks but still my trooper over

You have a water leak from the sound of it or water is draining from over heating. Things to check for, leaks at the hose connections, leaks at heater connections on engine, leaks at water pump and any leaks at head gasket. Assuming there are no leaks check or replace or adjust your water pump belt. Take the thermostat out and run the engine without out it. If the problem is solved replace the thermostat recommended for you car. You can also have it checked as well.

Over heating, thermostat replaced, radiator, engine, and heat core flushed, no water in exhaust.fans working, water pump flushes water thru.

You may have air in the system. Let the engine run with the radiator cap off until the thermostat opens. Have someone then get in the truck and bring the rpm up to 1800 to 2000 rpm and hold it there for 15 to 20 seconds while you top off the system with coolant and put the radiator cap tightly back on. Then bring the rpm down to idle and road test the truck. DO NOT BRING THE RPM BACK DOWN TO IDLE UNTIL THE RADIATOR CAP HAS BEEN INSTALLED COMPLETELY. I suggest replacing the radiator cap at this time also.

Trooper Overheating

Your radiator efficiency has been reduced by (what is called) blossoming. Blossoming is electrolytic growth of crystals inside radiator duct passages. This typically occurs in the older Troops as gradual overheating probs cause the vehicle to run low on coolant, then water is being used to top off system repeatedly, acid levels in cooling system rise as the coolant protectants degrade and the inside of the radiator ducts 'blossom' with small crystalline growths that reduce the radiators flow and ability to cool the engine. Flushing and blowing out the radiator are temporary fixes. Replacing the radiator is the permanent fix. You did the right thing by replacing the water pump, tstat and radiator cap. An old, original water pump usually fails soon after the radiator is replaced. New Trooper radiators are fairly cheap, $85+. The replacement can be done by any backyard mechanic or DIYer in under and hour. You know the typical warnings about the toxicity of antifreeze and the deadly affects on pets who drink improperly disposed coolant. Good luck to you. It's an easy remove and replace. Your Trooper will thank you with many cool running miles. -Geoff

Drop the tin sump and check the pick up pipe as the pipe can crack and the seal goes hard so lets some air air in for a bit .
