Paul,
If you don't drain it back to the proper level it will self-adjust by
dumping your $9 a gallon antifreeze out on the streets of town as the car
heats up to normal running temps.
Drain it out now and put it in the TR, looks like a long cold winter

Subject: [TR] Non-TR. too much coolant?
My 89yo mother added an extra gallon of anti-freeze to AN ALREADY FULL white
plastic coolant over-run-resrvoir on her big GM air-conditioned car. DO I
NEED TO DRAIN IT OUT?
The plastic antifreeze over-run container has the proper level (both when
hot or cold) on the side but she didn't read that. Mistakenly, I had been
blamed for negligence (because I seem to only work on the TR) and she
thought the level way-low.
Thanks, Paul Dorsey 60 TR3
