Is your coolant recovery tank an OEM part or an add on? On my old TO-30 Ferguson, the top of the radiator is the expansion space for the coolant as it warms. many people fill the radiator up to the top and when they start and run for awhile the coolant heats up and then flows out the overflow. The proper way to fill these with coolant is about 1/4 inch above the radiator core. The rest of the space is for coolant expansion.
Have you checked the coolant temperature independent of the gauge to make sure that it really is that hot? Start it up from cold with the cap off and see if the you get coolant flowing to the radiator as it comes up to temperature and the thermostat opens. If you don"t and the thermostat is good ( it"s opening at the corrct temp), your pump maybe bad. The impeller can corrode away over trime. Is the drive belt tight and not slipping? Squeeze that lower hose when the egine is running if it doesn"t feel like coolant i flowing into it, then the rad core is most likely clogged or the pump is worn out. Look for a collapsed hose on the pump suction side( lower rad hose). It doesn"t matter if it is new; they can collapse unless they have wire reinforcement in them.

Let�s examine the purpose and design of these fasteners in order to ensure their proper use. Fasteners are probably one of the aspects of mechanics that is given the least amount of thought.
