Yes - I've got a 180 degree thermostat in the motor and it's been my experience that with the cap off - with the engine at idle - you can see small bubbles and such floating by when the thermostat opens. I think in this initial case - with me leaving this very cheesy Mr. Gasket (with the heat gauge) cap on and not allowing the system to purge any air - the cap eventually let the pressurized coolant by, down the clear connector tube and into the catch bottle.
That's the way I'm telling the story, anyway.
