    Welcome to Prius Chat (y).

    Some questions:

    • Is the system completely bled of air, including the thermos?
    • Does the heater turn on?
    Keep us posted (y).

    You probably still have more air in the system. Keep checking the radiator cap ;).

    Good luck and keep us posted (y).

    You did fill it up at the radiator cap and not the overflow tank didn't you?

    It took me three hours to get the air out of my Gen 2.

    Was there coolant residue above or below the pump? Usually when the bearing fail on the pump coolant begins to leech out of the seal around the shaft and bearings which then puts coolant below the pump and on the underside of the hood as the pump is moving and it gets thrown upward.

    Hope that helps(y).

    The system doesn't hold near that much water, where is it all going?
