Default bmw e36 320i

hello just wondering if any1 here knows what may be causing it to overheat.the obvious ones are air lock in the water system,and its got a e30 3.0l rad is there anythink else that could be causing the overheating.

Also what could be causing it to misfire checked the lamber sensor,checked coil packs,only other thing i can think of is a fuel starvation.
thanks lloyd

yeah,you will have a airlock,the system does NOT self bleed,use the bleed screw near where you fill the system,and fill the car while its running,this will sort it,had same problem on my 325.
