there might not be enough coolant inside the radiator, i would check that first. also the heat switch might not open so that the coolant cant make its circle.there is a small possibility that the coolant pump has air around it and it cant regulate the coolant around the engine.beware, never open the radiator tap when the engine is hot.if you overheated the engine ( redline that is) you could have done permanent damage to the engine.
