    Coolant consumption

    Thanks guys. I checked it cold. At the L mark. Checked at Operating temp it was at F. I think I’ll look around the Valve and see but I think everything is ok. Someone mention that adding half a quarter/ or filling reservoir a year isn’t an issue. I have heard a closed system shouldn’t lose...
