You should see the anti-freeze in the tank. If you see it and it is an inch or so deep you're there. Filling the tank up will rersult in it "puking" when turned off after a heat soak. This is normal as the water/anti-freeze will expand as it gets hot. Just don't add any more and it will stop doing the "puke" thing
