Question type: Maintenance & Repair

i have a friends 2001 Pontiac sunfire in my shop, with a 2.2.
it slowly over heats while idling. I've already changed the water pump and the
thermostat, i'm stumped. the fans kick on, and it seems to draw coolant fine
when i add it, but its losing it through the overflow tube with the cap on.

Also there is a couple of more things to check out. Is the radiator or if the A.C condenser sets in front of radiator is it clogged with dirt and bugs restricting air flow across the coils or cooling ports in engine block clogged clean with a good cooling system flush.
