Sounds like you are building excess pressure. Could have a head gasket leak. Try using head and engine sealer. Follow directions completly. Stuff works great for small leaks. Has a clear liquid called "sodium silicate" ir gets very hard when it hits the air if you have a lek. You can check for leak in system with a radoator pressure tester.
