My radiator was spitting coolant overboard and the engine temp was rising on shut down. I installed an overflow tank and things seemed to get better. But I noticed the overflow tank would stay full. Why wasn't it sucking back into the radiator as the engine/coolant cooled? Because my $18 Griffin radiator cap was a piece of crap and not creating a pressurized seal, that's why! I recently replaced the cap with a cheapo from the local parts store and life is good once again.
Don't underestimate the stupid stuff when you're troubleshooting a heating/cooling issue.
