Nope!
Either the system is not fully filled, (air in system), or the pressure
cap is not holding, or most likely you have an internal head leak
filling the cooling system with combustion gases.

Subject: Blinking Coolant Light Mystery (to me)

so, the coolant light seems to begin blinking once the van is warm.
i've learned a little about this scenario while searching the archives.

the fill tank is full, but the expansion tank is at (or below)
minimum..........should it be that way?

any suggestions?

thanks for your help!
dusty.
