I refilled the lost fluid and measured it precise, and it lost only 1/2 gallon, that's 2 1/4 qts of the total cooling capacity of 10.5 qts. So, I stand corrected on what I wrote earlier. I now re-filled it to the top, and started the engine with the cap off. Immediately the fluid began to rise out of the radiator, just like a rising tide, no bubbles. I kept sticking my finger in to drain it so I could see better if it bubbled, but it would just rise again.I kept doing that, and never did I see bubbles. Eventually I just put the cap back on, and none flowed out anymore. The temperature didn't get past like 150 while I was doing all that at about 1400 rpm (estimated as I don't have a tach yet).
I then revd it up to like 2000, and the temperature began to rise and kept going to 215 before I decided to rev it down. No steam came out. I let it idle for a while and turned it off at 200 degrees as it wouldn't cool less than that.
If my old memory serves me correct, I think I remember now, seeing this once before in my life sometime, the water just rising out with no bubbles, and if I remember correctly, it was the water pump, not working. Is that correct?
