On and off heat

Ok I did as you suggested and shell it did was the fluid level rose and ran out over the filler neck. It only had 20-30 small Bible come out. It didn't burp out a lot of air and hey didn't get any better. Should both the to and bottom radiator hoses be hot? The top one I know should be and is and the bottom stays cold. Of the two heater hoses the passenger side gets warmer than the driver side but I can feel the driver side is a little warm.

I had mystery coolant loss for quite a while before it finally started leaking enough to leave a puddle on the driveway. Mine was from the freeze plug behind the drivers side motor mount.
The little bypass hose from the w/p to the intake is another good spot. Coolant pools on top of the timing cover, and basically boils off, never leaving a puddle, and you can't see it there either.

Back flush the heater core. With both hoses disconnected, point them both up in the air, and fill the core from the longer hose till fluid runs out the shorter one. Clamp them both off, and hook 'em back up. (trying to lose as little fluid as possible.) See if that doesn't help the situation.

All is good now. I did as you suggested however my hose was not long enough(that's what she said), so I used a low pressure of air and then poured water in. Heat is good and hot after about 3-4 mins of idle time and the temp gauge is now getting back to where it used to be(closer to the edge of the 210 mark). Thanks for everyones input.
