Hi Percy -

* * * UPDATE: IF RUNNING THE MODIFICATION SHOWN ABOVE * * *

Yes - that is correct. The Overflow (expansion) tank gets a regular pressure cap.

I install a "temporary" catch bottle when I first fill my system, and run it for a few hundred miles.

What I find is the system spits out water until it finds an equilibrium (about half way up the expansion tank) and then stabilizes. At that point I remove the catch bottle.

* * * If running a stock system, see LarryW's suggestion, below * * *
