Get a thermal temp gauge at Harbor Freight or off the i/net.I don't believe your gauge is accurate. Even if way overheated NO water/coolant should come out from the cap, do the g/hound rebuild and get the temp gun.
Most likely a plugged radiator or corroded cooling system or stuck t/stat(s), if installed.
Others will come in I'm sure.
