Thread: COOLANT LEVEL

I had a slow leak which I couldn't find. Eventually found it was the drain plug at bottom of radiator which is hidden by a shield plate (may not be using right words here). Seemed to only leak when really hot. New plug -> no problems. Also changed over to green coolant at the same time and have had no problems since.

Thanks for your replies, helpful
will investgate further
I like the idea of the texta mark on the header tank. I shall do this next week after the coolant has been replaced and setteled.

Had another look around this morning, taking the plastic shrouds off and the engien cover as well.

No sign of coolant but some oily mess aroudn the fwd rocker cover

thanks

I got the coolant changed out and a pressure test done, no leak found. I am happy with that.

later, when it looks liek teh coolant elvel has setteled I shall mark the header tank and monitor it from there.
