    Small Coolant Leak - Unknown Origin

    As the title describes, I have some kind of a coolant leak that I have not been able to identify. I had a new radiator put in about 2k miles ago at 176k. My water pump and TB have been done by the previous owner. There is no obvious leak in the system and no pooling coolant on the ground. I had...

    1996 LX450: Replaced coolant hoses and thermostat and now having flushing issues and no heat.

    Hello all, I think I might be overthinking this, but after replacing almost all of the coolant and heater hoses (still need to do the ones under the intake) on my 1996 LX450 I started the refill process and I'm stuck... I refilled the radiator with about 1.25 gallons of distilled water and...

    3 gallons Evans waterless coolant

    Hi everyone, I used to live in Arizona and I used Evan's waterless coolant in every car I had. I moved and I have three gallons of unused unopened Evans waterless coolant. Does anybody know how I can sell it or get rid of it? It would be a shame to just throw it away. And so few people use it...

    Throttle body coolant hoses part#'s

    I 'm looking for the part#'s for the throttle body coolant hoses. I believe bypass hose #1 and #3. Not #2 as I believe that is the PHH. Also would like validation that these two are the hoses that one would change when RR'ing the valve cover gaskets.

    Coolant type/color

    What is the correct coolant for my 2003 LC? While investigating weeping PS hoses (where are folks getting the 3/8 and 5/8 hoses BTW?) I noticed my coolant bottle is much closer to low than full.
