Wondering if you have simply overfilled the system.
Look for the obvious leaks first and fix that if any, such as hoses and clamps. If it's overheating though it could be sending coolant to the overflow and dumping it. If none of the above you might need to take a look at the thermostat.

Doubt you cooked the motor, doubt u overfilled it haha, probably bottom hose not tight, i eould get a proper clamp.
Depending were you live i can swing past and have a look and fix it after i finish work. |

Check that you haven't worn a hole through the top rubber hose. Installing a thicker rad makes the rubber hose come a lot closer to the belts and fans.
Might need a new hose and trim it to fit without rubbing.
