FIRST thing I would do is get a thermometer and see how hot it is when it gets to the red.
For reasons not very clear to me a lot of 122 temp gauges indicate hotter than they actually are.
You're right that they are filled with ether, but most of it is liquid.
If it had leaked the temp would indicate lower (but it would probably have to leak quite a bit).
