Antifreeze problem?
Hey Folks, When my Antifreeze goes low in the Radiator it is not pulling it from the reservoir. I checked the hoses from and to the radiator and they looked fine. Any ideas?

Possible coolant leak or maybe just a bad hose somewhere(check the one from the engine to firewall/driver side)
If it's a coolant seal then you might want to take your plugs out and check if their wet. If so then you better save for an engine.
Definitley try and find the source.

I checked this morning and all the antifreeze thatput in went back into the reservoir. So now my reservoir is getting full. It seems it is not getting sucked back into the engine or radiator..Any ideas?

Either you have a bad pressure cap, or the hose between the overflow tank and rad has a tiny leak. You won't be able to see this leak, but it will still prevent vacuum from pulling the coolant back into the rad.

You've got a leak in the cooling system...
Check all hoses and cooling system components...
radiator
radiator hoses
heater hoses
radiator cap(s)
coolant filler neck
coolant level sensor
water pump
