A couple questions this AM for the brain (t)rust! I have this truck ready to go back to work but I am not sure what level to put the coolant at. There is no overflow reservoir on the 1972 truck, extra coolant just drips out the tube onto the ground. So there are two large hoses. One goes from radiator to pump, this is the lower hose. The other is at the top of the radiator and I honestly do not recall where it goes, but I did not disconnect...so not the pump. I am going under the assumption that the lower hose supplies the pump which then distributes it to the engine via the other hoses on the pump. I am also going on the assumption that the other (top) hose returns the coolant to the radiator, it falls down thru and gets cooled. My goal is to fill the radiator just enough to allow for expansion of hot coolant and drip as little as possible onto the ground. Any recommendations on how high to fill it cold?

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
