[DML] Re: Coolant Coming Out

["Bernie" <bmanderville@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

You may have too much coolant in the car.  The overflow bottle should 
only be half full.  Do you have an air bleeder kit hooked up to your 
waterpump?  Also the small top radiator hose on the passenger side may 
need to be "burped" to let any extra air out.  Just loosen the clamp 
and pull the hose off until the air stops and coolant comes out, 
warning it will spurt at you, so safety glasses are a must.  Warning #2 
if you have the original radiator be very careful, the tank sides are 
made of plastic.
