If steam shot out when you popped the cap, you have air pockets. This is probably the demon you've been trying to exercise. I had a customer with an Escort a while back with a similar problem. I told him he had air pockets; he wouldn't believe me, then he came in a short time later and found that was the problem after all.

I'd go ahead and do what you suggested. That being you let it run with the cap off, and a fresh mix of 50/50 ready to fill it. I'm willing to bet the water level will go down quite a bit. You might wanna try doing this on even ground, too. Good luck.

p.s. Is your pump the proper rotation???
