After observing the leak for a few seconds, I shut down the engine and within a minut, another half gallon or so of coolant rapidly leaked from the fill cap. I have a replacement cap on the way, but why does it gush only AFTER the engine is shut down?
Heat soaking of the system without air moving through the radiators.
