There should be a couple of inches at least of free space below the radiator cap for expansion. If you're not having to add coolant frequently, it's not likely you've got an actual "overheat" problem. The short shaft pump puts the fan too low on the radiator for good cooling at idle speed or in traffic. Jerry
