Thanks Bob. That makes a lot of sense. I'll check for the hose next time I'm out, although I don't recall seeing one. Have you ever drained your system? Emmerich apparently also has tried and has had trouble finding the right drain plugs. Maybe I'll just top it off with fresh antifreeze and forget it.

Jeff,

On my '85 M18 there is an overflow hose that exits just below the
radiator cap.  If you remove the cap, you can insert your finger. You
should be able to get wet before you stretch your finger.  If you feel
you need to add some fluid, put a bucket under the hose and fill until
it drains out.
