The word "AIR" from air hose is on top of the fill point for the coolant.
This is the highest point in the system and if you read your manual this is where they want you to fill from to eliminate the air bubble problem.
The plug is plastic so becareful removing. I have to use a vis-grip to open mine. You may not have this problem though. Mine has buggered threads.
(unlike this post thread, which I have yet to bugger)
As far as your leak location. I am thinking maybe you have a leak near or under the overfill tank. If you have coolant on your oil filter that would tell me to look at the coolant hoses on the passenger side of the engine. |
I don't think it's that. As i said it still read full when the block was cool to touch, as was oil. Where is the coolant sensor that drives the gauge?
I'll have to look closer next time im home to see if i can tell where it's coming from. Can you see the weep hole from underneath? It's just so damn cold out and I was workign on the porsche's rod bearings in the greenhouse...
