What should my coolant fill cap look like?
Should it be a "radiator cap" style device with the springs and low pressure sucker, or should it just be a flat cap with no "gadgets" under it?
It's currently a radiator style cap, which makes no sense, because there's nowhere for coolant to go (except leaking slightly overboard and sucking air in).

I've got a rad cap on my t-stat housing fill tube also, doesn't hurt anything as long as the outer gasket is sealing properly (might not be happening with you).
That way you're driving around with a spare rad cap, never know when you might need it!
