Adding coolant..

Hey guys,

Just wondering if I should add coolant to the overflow tank or to the radiator? I am just topping it off.

Car is a 2000 Civic, all stock.

to the overflow to the full mark when cold, or if the motor is warm fill it to the middle of min and full on the overflow

just make sure the radiator is full as well, but it will take coolant from the overflow if its low.

I ran the heat on high for about 10-15 minutes, and it didn't seem to take any from the overflow tank. I will check again in 2 days.
