If your worried about air bubbles it wouldn't hurt to do that. Park it with
the radiator cap at the highest point and let it idle to temperature, filling
with new coolant if it falls below cap level.

The gas tank holds 50 Liters or 13.2 US Gallons. There is a hollow plastic floater attached to the fuel pump which indicates how high the gas is in the tank. When you corner fast the gas sloshes around and can throw a high or a low reading depending on turn direction. Nothing to worry about just rea...
