Hmm... sounds like a side-effect of the temp sensor being located near the
top of the coolant system (where there will be nothing but air if you dump
the coolant). Is there any benefit to moving the sensor to a lower point in
the system?

The light should flash as soon as the coolant level sensor hits nothing but
air... so if that starts flashing, I'm pulling over!
