If the cooling system was recently filled up to the top of the radiator
neck, this is quite normal. Air in the cooling system will expand and
push out the coolant, also the coolant itself will expand a bit. Perhaps
there was some local boiling after switching off which will also push
out some coolant. In a more modern system this overflowed coolant will
end up in the overflow tank, but when the system cools down the coolant
will be sucked back into the radiator providing the hose from the
radiator to the overflow tank ends up near the bottom and the radiator
cap is absolutely airtight. So fit the overflow tank and there will be
no more loss of coolant.
If you have a thermoswitch controlled electric fan fitted run it
straight from the battery so it will continue to work after switching
off. However operate the manual override switch from the accessories
terminal so the fan will not keep running if you accidentally did not
switch off the fan manually.
