    It could be a slight leak in your head gasket. Check to make sure you don't have oil in your anti-freeze, anti-freeze in your oil, & also check to see if you have a slight fuel smell to your anti-freeze.

    That's what the problem with Boy's Ebony ended up being & the only symptoms were the overheating issue after driving for about 15 min ... & the fuel smell in the radiator.

    Head gaskets seem to be ok

    Thanks, just checked. No dice. On to the next potential cause, I guess. <sigh>
