hey yesterday i just did the radiator and coolant system flush and after i added back in the coolant, a little over two gallons in total, i let it sit for the night.
in the morning i checked on the ex before i drove it and found a giant puddle of coolant on the ground, but the overflow tank was bone dry.
i know the hose isnt blocked because when i was flushing the radiator the water would bubble to the top and transfer over.
did i add too much? i waited for the stat to open and kept pouring in coolant through the funnel till the level stayed steady in the radiator.
i guess when the engine cooled it spat out all the extra coolant onto the ground from someplace. does this mean one of my hoses is suspect? because i replaced all those too.
