i once blew a seal on a rack and pinion buy overfilling it, you say it is filled to the MAX as in the MAX line or it is topped off? do not top it off

i have heard of people putting in power stearting coolers is yours getting very hot? maybe it is failing or maybe it just has air bubbles iin it, is it NEW or previouly drianed or did it just start doing it?
