What makes an engine overheat instantly even though thermostat is removed?

Make Sure That Your Fan Is Running For Cooling The Radiator. Put A New Thermostat Back In. It Will Run Hot Without One. The Water Will Not Stay In The Radiator Long Enough To Cool. If This Doesn`t Help, Have a Good Radiator Shop Look At It For You. Also You May Want To Resumit A Question as To What Happened If This Did Not Cure The Problem. Thank You
