Sounds like you either have an air lock in the system (needs bleeding) or the head gasket has blown (needs replacing and the head checking for warpage). DON'T run it with the cap off.

:cry:
 
look for bleed screws on the heater matrix pipes and possibly the radiator. let the air out with the engine running and you hopefully will be sorted.
