Mine did the same thing it began to putter in the first few minutes of driving it. Were in Toledo sop it's cold and snowy. I thought it need some fuel cleaner, I picked up some and some antifreeze filled up the tank, added the cleaner. The coolant wasn't low. Suddenly my temperature gage started freaking out and going crazy up and down and up and down if I had it on (recycle air it would go down faster). But it wasn't smoking or no other lights were on just the low coolant, then the service engine light flasshing ... Then next morning we went to start it and the oil started speuing out from the filter area. Now it's possible I may have a cracked block. So my advice : DON'T DRIVE IT!! take it straight to the fix it shop other wise you may loose yours too. It sucks. Sorry

There may be other reasons for the vehicle to be overheating but yes if you have let the reservoir run dry then it wont have suction to draw fluid back into the radiator so you will have to fill the radiator as well.
