My trusty old 850 with 210,000 on it may be heading into a death spiral. I am getting a pressure build-up in my cooling system and its causing fluid to come out of the overflow. About two months ago, I put a new radiator in and that is when the problem showed up. I replaced the overflow tank lid but its still happening. I assume its the head gasket but I am not seeing any blue steam or antifreeze in the oil. Anyone have any other thoughts?

Thanks!
