Make sure coolant pressure bottle is filled to the MAX line (don't remove cap on warm or hot engine), start it up, let it warm up to pressurize the system, turn it off. Open bleeder (on top front of engine - looks exactly like a brake bleeder). Air should come out at first. When you see a steady stream of water come out, close the bleeder. Check level in pressure bottle and top it off again, if needed, after it cools down. Bill Putney (To reply by e-mail, replace the last letter of the alphabet in my address with the letter 'x') |

If it continues to happen, then that will have to be investigated, but you need to do the initial bleeding to see where you are (i.e., to see if it recurs and/or look for leak).
