Start the motor with the radiator cap off and the radiator full...when the motor warms up and the thermostat opens the fluid level will drop...add additional antifreeze until full and replace the cap. Make sure you also have antifreeze in your overflow tank. GL

It seems like running it without the cap did the trick. Thanks for the help.
