When the rig is cold and radiator completely filled, fill your expansion tank up to exactly the line.
Then every morning when the rig is cold check the expansion tank.
If the level keeps dropping your consuming (loosing) coolant.
You can limp it along like that by keeping the expansion tank filled. The radiator will suck in coolant as it cools.
Assuming your rig isn’t losing coolant to fast.
Then you need to find the issue. Common issues are leaking water pump, leaking head gasket, leaking heater controll valve, rusted and leaking rear heater core lines, hoses, ect....
