Ford

We recently rebuilt a ford 8n tractor and we bought a brand new radiator for it. we added 1 gallon of antifreeze and 1 gallon of water and it filled the radiator right up. we started it up and had it run for 15 minutes until we shut it off. the next day i went out and checked the antifreeze level and it was the same as the day before. i always thought that the antifreeze has to circulate throughout the engine and and that would then lower the level? i would like the hear what a mechanic or a person who has done this before has to say? did i do something wrong or not do something that i should have? thanks.

You did ething correct. the only reason the level would go down is if there is still air in the system. if your level did not change over night then your system has as much of the air out of it as possible. replace the cap and fill the over flow. your good to go.
