Fill it with coolant (to the top) leave the cap off and have someone crank it over. See if it starts to bubble a spit out when it fires up. Now, the level may go down if the coolant is low, so be ready to top it back off so you can determine if it is doing this.

How old is the thermostat? Is it sticking?
