Its an over heating isuue, but he wont, cant or doesnt seem to know what needs replacing. If its a rad or thermostat, blown pipe then i would take a punt on it, but not if the head(s) gaskets are gone........too far me to travel for a non runner and a big repair bill lol

The chances is it is head gaskets or air lock
But to be fair my gut feeling is gaskets so full re build
