2000se, I have justdrained my coolant from bottom of water pump and flushed with distillled water. Oncei started refilling through the radiator with new antifreeze the reservior filled almost to the top and still don't see any in the radiator. I starter the engine and ran to normal operating temp and nothing changed. I drained out a gallon andhave put back in about three qts.Why is the reserivior filling first?
