Default Just a thought

I had similar problems...my car would just start spitting out fluid from the overflow hose. A new radiator fixed this problem...Just a few questions and a thought.
1. How do you know the car is overheating (by the gauge or is fluid pumping out? The gauge might be wrong???

Maybe someone can verify this thought - but I kinda remember removing the thermostat all together in the old days - can't remember why - but it might lend a clue. Without the thermostat in - you should get a totally free flow. Maybe it is possible that there is debris getting stuck in the thermostat?? Anybody know if this would help?
