Something is wrong internally with the cooling system. Could be a bad thermostat not opening and allowing the fluid to circulate a plug of some kind in the system or even a leaking head gasket.

A thermostat that is stuck in the closed position is a very common cause of overheating. A new thermostat should be installed every time the coolant is changed.

A leak could potential cause the issue you describe and still keep the engine from overheating. I would suggest having the cooling system pressure tested for leaks and having any leaks repaired.
There are no busted hoses and no overheating but coolant leaks in 1997 jeep Cherokee sport what could it be?
Look just below the water pump to see if any antifreeze is visible. Water pumps will sometimes leak and drip out antifreeze. Check the engine oil to see if antifreeze is mixed with the oil, indicating a blown head gasket.

If you do not have any external leaks, a head gasket is most likely.
1993 Subaru is overheating and then dropping to normal all the time?
Hoses could be gunked up, check to see if they're tight on radiator, or if there are any leaks, could overheat when clogged, then return to normal when fluid is able to get through.Also could be crack in radiator letting steam out.Check hoses, see if there is any white crusted stuff, (dried out radiator fluid), around front of car.Those would be the 2 simplest things to check, thermostat and water pump are worth a check but a little more work to check/fix.
How do you know if your head-gasket is blown on a 1998 Chevy lumina?
The best way is to do a compression and/or leak down test. If it's overheating in a fairly short amount of time it's probably a bad gasket or cracked head. Using antifreeze without any visible leaks is a good indication.
