Was my thinking too...not sure you have to have the overflow tank. My last vehicle didn't have one, it would sometimes spew a little coolant out in really hot weather/hard driving. Hmm..maybe that's how my dog died. Maybe its spewing because the thermostat is stuck closed? Hard to say what's going on not knowing if the motor is overheating or not, but that's my wild guess.

I just got this truck. It hasnt been ran in about two years. Deer took out everything upfront i installed a new radator and grille and a few other things. I know nothing about these gas motors. Ive always ran diesel trucks. Along those lines i know i need an overflow tank but was just suprised that it got hot enough to spew fluid out in just four miles in 30 degrees?
Yea thats the radiator caps design. It opens when it reach pressure and temp to overflow into the little hose next to the cap and goes into the reservoir
