Yay! I think. 700 1991

The car has been home and parked in the garage for 1 hour & 15 minutes, so far. With the hood just open enough so that it is not latched (for easy access since I'm checking it every 15 to 30 min.), but nearly closed. The upper radiator hose is still stiff, coolant level is still about where it should be, I think. When cold this morning, level was just at the "MAX" line, when it came home, and now (still quite warm) it is just at the top of the letters "MAX." That is about 3/4" above the line. I figure that it will fully cool overnight and the level should be at the "MAX" line as it was this morning. I hope.

Of course, since I am completely fear and worry driven, I'm now concerned that it is holding pressure too long . . .
