Coolant levels after H/C swap Hey guys, I just finished up my H/C swap about a week ago and made some sick power.
However I have noticed that my coolant level seems to drop a bit everytime I drive the car...
I have put about 70 miles on the car since the swap. And I have had to had a few teaspoons of coolant to fill her up after each trip...
Is this normal? Just takes a while for everything to fill up properly?
I would be shocked if I had a leaky head gasket... I used cometics and copper spray.
Think I am just paranoid and need to give it some time? I sure hop so

If you've only driven 70 miles, it's probably normal. Everytime I have had my radiator out it has taken a while to get all the bubbles out of the cooling system. As long as you are not seeing smoke out your exhaust or a puddle under your car, I wouldn't worry too much about it. Just keep an eye on it. Better safe than sorry.
