[QUOTE="RaYzerman19, post: 1337310, member: 18388"] Sounds OK sorta...... methinks Ken is right. I'd check that rad cap, but even so, shouldn'ta puked unless overfilled. Weak rad cap mighta let some extra out, but coolant only expands so much, would have to boil.... again if rad cap didn't hold sufficient pressure. If it tests OK, then I'd look at thermostat next. If you open rad cap when not hot and see coolant circulating, water pump likely OK (the bypass hose allows some to circulate even if thermostat closed). Edit - I see while I was typing others jumped on the rad cap........ [/QUOTE]
