All,
  Remember I said the Van ran great to Pittsburgh and there were no
issues...  Well, maybe I do have some trouble.  Here are the quick
details...
  The Van ran great to Pittsburgh and back but as we stopped at a store
right outside of Pitt, I noticed the Temp gauge go up to about half way
through the LED warning light (a little above normal).  I shut the engine
off and waited for Mark to come out of the store.  He came out, we went to
get the seat and at Eric's house, I looked at the overflow tank and it was
FULL and the reservoir had some air in it. (BTW, I just did my head gaskets
about 2 months ago).  We drained the overflow tank down to just above low,
filled up the reservoir again and were on our way home.  The return trip was
fine.  I figured it was a foul reservoir cap so I got a new reservoir cap on
Monday and the Van is still running great, Temp gauge is and has been fine,
heat works great, overflow is in spec (right above the low mark) BUT, and
this is a big but, there is still some air in the Reservoir after I run it
to operating temp.  The coolant level in the reservoir tank is not below the
hose inlets but it still has air in it.  There is also an ever so slight
line of foam or bubbles around the edge of the coolant in the air pocket in
the reservoir.  The color of the coolant seems to still be a fresh blue
so...  Am I looking for an issue or do I really have an issue?...  Thanks.
