checking the coolant.....

[mesmeralda]

I replaced the coolant with engine ice, burped the engine however when do I check the coolant level in the overflow tank. When the engine is hot, over the full mark, or when its cold, right at the min. mark.

After you have burped the system...it should be at the full mark cold

That would put it over the full mark when its hot....is that okay?

The service manual says "after warming up and cooling down the engine several times, add the engine coolant up to the full level of the reserve tank"
