Couple of things here, overflow steam could mean the tea is boiling. Naa na that aint right, but here is what it could be. You possible might be low on radiator coolant, remove the radiator cap when engine is cool (be careful) if no coolant is visible then add a mix of antifreeze and water to top it off. Another thing I have seen is during extreme cold weather, ( in the twenties is not extreme here in these parts ) if an engine does not have the correct mixture of antifreeze, ( meaning not enuff) it could be froze and they will steam out the overflow tube. Also, if you think a car cannot freeze up while driving with just water in the radiator, that is dead wrong, but typically this wont happen until temps fall to below 0.
hope this helps Dan
