Heater core was leaking so bypassed it and put in new thermostat. Now it seems the over flow fills up and doesnt flow back to radiator. Almost over heated because coolant was low in radiator it burped into o. Flow? Need to put coolant into rad. But dont want to over fill. Pressure in system long after it cools off.
