I have a problem that I've noticed recently with my 1994 Celica GT. I did an engine swap recently and I've noticed something I've never had in the previous engine. I put another 5SFE in by the way. I redid the water pump and redid the gasket for the thermostat. When I run the car, for a period of time and shut it off, I've noticed a bubbling that under the hood coming from the coolant reservoir. Can anyone give me a culprit or a common issue with this? I've looked it up other places it says a few things: bad radiator cap, improperly sealed head gasket. I'm not really sure where else I should look? Sometimes, not very often, the car will overheat will driving and if I put it back in neutral and rev the engine it goes to normal operating temp. The temp gauge goes to about half way where it should be. I'm lost. Can anyone explain where I should start looking?

I bought this engine online and it was certified tested before hand what not with a 90 day warranty. It was only a short block and I added all of my components from the old engine over. I was thinking thermostat as well... I’m hoping it’s not a HG...
