Default over heating sucks

so i get home and i hear a funny noise. i pop my hood and my raidiator resivor is boiling. open the top an steam pours out. didnt know it was gettin hot cause my temp guage is screwed up. so it looks like a flush is in order tomarrow along with a new thermostat possibly. i also need a new temp sensor. when im drivin the temp guage bounces up an down. but when im at idel it semi reads. its the senor on the motor near the radiator hose. anyone got one for sale?
