I just installed a new koyo radiator last week, and have been trying to get it completely full of water over the past week. I ran it a little hot last week. Today, I was able to put a lot of water in it. I was pouring it into the Radiator Fill Spout, and kept filling it until enough had backed up into the overflow tank and it overflowed. Then I ran it, parked it, and more overflowed out of the overflow tank. The last time I saw this, I had a coolant leak.????? Please tell me there was just to much water in the system.

i assume your running the proper mix of both coolant and water...not just water as youve indicated....you may need to try and burp the system...theres also no mention of the coolant light or buzzer...
fyi...the filler neck never stays topped off .... if the coolant level is visible in the filler..your fine...keep the level in your overflow a bit below full

Yeah, everytime I run it, I let it cool and check the filler neck. I can always see water down in there. But tonight, I could see water, but started filling it anyway, and filled and filled until it came out of the overflow tank. The stock temp gauge doesn't work, I use my PFC


The temp sensor on the front of the filler neck isn't connected either, but I assume the PFC is getting a reading from the sensor behind the water pump. I heard that it will read about 10 degrees to higher though.

a mixture, but everytime I have refilled it, I have put in just water, so I probably need to add some coolant
