Losing coolant
You are correct Don. It initially says fill to the top, page one and goes through a bleed process through the gate valves for bleeding air out of the engine and heater system. When finished it says fill to the top of the site glass presumably to allow for heat expansion without dropping it on the ground. page 2. Sounds like that famous radio commentator, what's his name???

Leroy, would you double check that? The exact line in my manual reads (split between front and back pages):



"Remove cap and fill radiator surge tank to the top of sight glass."



That is what I do, and is significantly different than "to the top."



There is a large air space above the top of sight glass, which in theory should handle heat-induced expansion without overflow.
