If the coolant is overflowing from the reservoir then the engine is overheating. Check for cooling fan operation, thermostat operation, and also make sure the coolant is not low. Have you done this yet?

Is the engine overheating? Have you checked the engine temperature?

its saying that it is
Automotive Expert
Is the cooling fan working?

fan is working fineWhen car is on after a while coolant reverses from radiator to overflow resevior tank. When i turn car off it cools down and goes back into radiator
Automotive Expert
Have you done a combustion chamber leak test to make sure you don't have a head gasket leak?

i haveChecked out good
Automotive Expert
Ok then there must be some air trapped in the system. Have you tried vacuum bleeding the cooling system?

No what is that?
Automotive Expert
It is a vacuum pump that sucks all the air out of the cooling system. Air pockets keep the coolant from flowing properly and cause it to overheat.

Haven't tried thisAlso my headlights blink when car is off
Automotive Expert
Ok I would try that next.
