After bleeding go for driving a few miles with the heating on. Let the car cold down and check again the coolant level, refill until the neck if needed.
On my 96 LT4 I have noticed that the coolant overflow container level is always about the same either at HOT or COLD.
I shut off the engine after a 30 mile drive, highway and surface streets, so the engine was up to normal operating temp, checked the level and it was just above the COLD level.
Checked again two hours later and level still the same.
So is this a problem? Both temp gauges read normal temps...no overheating or anything.
Thanks
Mine's been the same since I got my 1995. Don't sweat it!
