I did my mods as described above. I ran the engine the allow it to warm up. I didn't put the cap on the coolant bottle. After about 5 minutes there was a surge of coolant that overflowed out of the top of the bottle. Is this from the thermostat opening expelling air ? Anyone got any ideas?

Thanks

David
