I had a similar coolant dump that was caused by a crimped o-ring in the pressure relief valve. I sourced a replacement locally for $5. As others have noted- it is a 5 minute job to take the valve apart to inspect the O-rings- there are two. Just be careful not to strip the screws when you re-assemble it.
