Default Engine coolant ?

Alright, I brought my car into a local shop to get the engine coolant flushed and refilled. That was a couple months ago. So I just recently checked the coolant level and it seems to be really full. Its up the T in "Full Hot". That is with the engine being cool. Iam pretty that I should drain it to get the level right. Is the guy who flushed and filled my coolant not very bright, should I drain it? thanks

In reality your coolant system will "puke" out an over abondance of coolant on its own. Your coolant recovery tank has a way to purge out an overfill of coolant and "surprise" it will end up being full to the optimal level. Dont worry about it.
