I'm in the process of identifying a small/slow leak in my '99 LC, so I've been regularly checking fluids. Yesterday, after driving for about 2 hours, I was checking fluids and the coolant level was about 2 inches above the low mark.
Today, after the LC sitting overnight, I checked and it was well below the low mark with just a small portion of coolant in the reservoir (wasn't bone dry, but was definitely low).
Two questions:
1. Should I add coolant? I'm thinking yes, even though I know levels fluctuate based on engine temp.
2. If so, and I don't know what type of coolant is in there now (appears to be greenish), is it ok to mix different types?
Thanks for the help!
