Hi Tom!
Thanks for your quick reply. My manual says to fill to the base of the neck. What I can't figure out is that,as soon, I mean the second I start the motor, the fluid gushes out from the relief hole below the cap, so there is not really any time for any heat expansion to occur. It's as if there was some sort of pneumatic pressure building up instantaneously, which blows off the fluid. Any thoughts?

Blown head gasket (or cracked head) will cause the water to pressurise and blow out. You can get a garage to put there tester on it and run it up they will see if its blowing.

Did you ever see a outboard engine in a barrel of water? Soon as the prop starts to turn there is a surge. This could be the same from your water pump. I dont recall ever seeing any radiator that wasn't slightly below the neck. None of my tractors or vehicles are (when cooled)including the newer ones with overflow resivoir's.
