If you're having coolant burping, even w/ a new cap then it's likely a HG issue unless you've overfilled cold.

FWIW, I had mine at a shop for an AC issue and they "topped" off my coolant and the drive home it over flowed. Ford issued a TSB as I recall as you can overfill cold and it will pop at temp. I want to say that even my service manual has the fill spot very low on the degass bottle.

And, I've used a pressure pump while trying to find a leak. I tested the system to 15lbs and the coolant will pressurize to the top of the degas if you have over filled cold.


I've drained mine to the correct level and I have no issues now.
