temperature fluctuating '02 chevorlet venture mini van Sign In

2002 chevorlet venture minivan with the 3.4l V6 180 000km. My 02 chevorlet venture mini van had the head gasket changed at 60 000km about three years ago. A couple of days ago the cab heat started fluctuating from time to time but the engine temp guage stayed where it should be. Last night while driving home the cab heat fluctuated again but this time the engine temp needle climbed very quickly to the red just as we pulled in the driveway. Could this be the thermostat , an air lock or a water pump or could this be the head gasket again?

You have air in the system likely due to a leak. have the cooling system pressure tested to find the leak.
