Subject:coolant fairies, expansion cap.

The coolant fairies are laughing at me.

A few days ago I broke the water pump belt going down the highway luckily I
seen the steam in my rear view and immediately pulled over. When I got to
the back coolant was everywhere and the cap from the expansion tank (inside)
had blown off.  Before this I noticed that the tank had over the max level
of coolant. This is  a brand new expansion tank/cap. Got the belts changed
however,  yesterday when I got to the Pirates game I was dripping from the
tank or from the top of it. It seems as if it is not letting the extra
coolant into the second tank.

Planning on going on vacation soon, so I am wondering what a long trip will
do.
Have a good one folks,
