There's no water pump. Are you sure it's running hot. It is a thermosiphon system and relies on differences in water temperature to circulate the coolant. Every cub I own has it's own level for coolant in the radiator.
If you're concerned about it spitting some coolant out the radiator cap when you work it just keep an eye on it for a while. As long as there is coolant in the tank above the radiator tubes you are probably OK. It will spit out the excess and generally stops with the level about 1 1/2" or so below the fill neck. As long as the lower hose is relatively cool, the system is working.
Just make sure to keep the radiator fins clean so the fan can do it's work.
