--snip-- Levels still full pressure tank , high as in up to filler cap in filling reservoir --snip-- This reminds me of a question I keep thinking of and forgetting to ask: Where is full/normal on the expansion tank? I see a "min" mark just above the mid-line seam, and I've always figured that the system was supposed to be self-leveling to a point, but I have filled my expansion tank to the bottom of the neck (with the overflow tank full to the bottom of its neck) and the system always finds the same level, which is perhaps 1.5" above the expansion tank seam. I have no leaks, no overheating issues or any of that, so I'm just curious. My guess was that as it "self-bled" the air (how does that air get out?)it made room for the coolant, but I dunno. Thoughts? Cya, Robert
