problem w. overheating 1991 explorer

Got a problem, need some input. My 1991 explorer engine overheats, the radiator coolant spits up and seeps out of the spare resevoir and steam comes out of the radiator cap. i've checked for leaks and found nothing. I need help because the truck has stalled twice.

It may also be the radiator cap , If it cant hold pressure then the things you describe will happen .
