I know I asked this before but I am still trying to figure out the coolant level question. I got the new cap and no more spraying coolant or leak. But when the car is cool over night the coolant level is to the top. when I drive it and the car reaches the 180 level temperature. the coolant level shows about 4-5" bellow the low line. Some one mentioned about airin the system. I assume this is very true because when I open the cap after driving a ton of air escapes and the coolent level starts rushing upward and over flows. but if the car is cool this does not happen. If I let it seep out slowly then the level rises slowly but won't overflow.

Does this mean I still need more coolant. and if so can you end up putting to much coolant in the tank. Is this bad.

The temp light comes on after a drive for a while. this happens when the coolant level drops after getting hot
thanks
