Yea, that would be a pretty bad radiator cap, from that description.

Just an fyi, drain and flush the cooling system before you put in the
radiator flush chemicals.  Those cleaning chemicals can react with the
ethylene glycol, forming a nice goo that gunks up the cooling system. 
There's a fancy name of this, but I don't remember it.  Make sure you
flush the cleaner out completely again before you add the new
antifreeze/coolant.
