Re: Coolant leak?
The whole idea of a puke tank is to allow the coolant in the radiator when it heats and expands to flow into the puke tank. When the system cools the coolant then flows back into the radiator keeping air out of the radiator, which is an enemy to good cooling. Now when you fill the radiator full, and it heats it could very well put enough coolant into your puke tank to make it "leak" or overflow. Now do not panick, and put more coolant into the system. It is just finding its level, when it achieves a proper level it will stop puking onto your floor. your cap is doing its job, maintaining pressure and letting coolant out into the overflow tank. I hope this helps.
