    Hi,

    I hav a 1982 Volvo 240 GL series (non turbo) my coolant boils over
    within several minutes of starting the car. It just started hapening
    one day and I even took (most) of the coolant out and replaced it and I
    have the have problem. Someone told me to take the tempature sensor out
    of my radiator hose but that doesn't seem very safe.

    Its my only car so does anyone have any idea's?

    Thank You!

    Seems like you have a headgasget that has to be replaced.
    Removing the temperature sensor will not solve it/

    Sorry.
