Air in the system. Purge air out of the system. Park the truck facing uphill with the radiator cap off. Idle it until it is fully warm and top off the coolant as needed.

Bleed air from system like this remove cap from overflow tank fill with antifreeze to full mark leave cap off and start vehicle and let idle you will notice level in tank start to rise this is normal once thermostat starts to open level in tank will drop add more antifreeze to full mark then put cap back on.
