I have a '57 WD 45 and have a few questions concerning it's cooling system. I noticed a few days ago that after the engine heated up, steam was coming out of the radiator overflow tube near the radiator cap. Does this mean that my brand new radiator cap is not sealing properly? Any way to fix that? Also, while in the process of checking this out, I decided to replace the thermostat. Well, when I took it apart I discovered that there isn't even a thermostat currently installed. Is this normal? Sorry for my ignorance, but which way do I put the new thermostat in? Finally, is there a way to check to see if the water pump and radiator are working properly? Thanks in advance. Donnie
