It sounds O.K. to me ~

1888 F isn't hot .

For maximum power, fuel economy and engine life you want to run it as close to boiling as possible but many fail to grasp this .

The squeezing out a bit of coolant when fully warmed up means you're over filling it ~ it needs some air space for compression .

I too prefer a surge or "puke" tank .

Remember ; the cap is different when using a surge tank, must have two rubber seals or it won't suck the coolant back in as the engine cools down .
