The nipple under the rad cap should connect to the plastic overflow bottle via a rubber/plastic hose. Find the overflow bottle, find the hose, connect it to the nipple using some kind of clamp.

Top off the coolant level in the bottle to the "Full Cold" mark, re-check when hot. GM has suggested that the bottles in various vehicles be over-filled to combat deterioration of the Dex-Cool coolant, but your vehicle may not have Dex-Cool antifreeze, and your vehicle may or may not be one of the ones that GM recommends overfilling.

"I" do not have much problem with lightly over-filling the recovery bottle no matter what GM says.

END trade with Communist China.
