![]() When you flush the radiator, you need to start the car with the cap off, once the thermostat opens the water level will go way down and you can top it off, then cap it. you most likely have air in the system. Another possibility is you got a reverse rotation waterpump, a lot of rebuilts are like that, if you don't change the belt around, the pump might not be pumping water through the system. How much is it rising, it will rise till the thermostat opens up, do you have an autometer gauge?
