Is your radiator cap for a pressurized tank? If not, that might be part of the problem. But I would think that you probably need to take the radiator to a radiator shop and have them rod out the inside so all the passageways are clean. It could be that because it is not passing water below it is accumulating in the upper tank and when it is getting pressurized it is dumping the excess into the upper reservoir tank. Possibly just tap water was used and calcium deposits have plugged up the passageways (always use anti-freeze). If the water pump is good, the radiator cap renewed and thermostat good, then the only thing left is the radiator.
