Car Forum / Honda Cars / May 200895 CIVIC 1.5 GRADUALLY LOSES COOLANT--
The engine runs flawlessly and gets 45 MPG local driving and 54 MPG highway. Every 1,000 miles or so, I need to add about a pint of coolant each to the radiator and the reservoir. Where should one look with these engines for coolant loss sources? I would especially appreciate suggestions from those who are familiar with this engine and this year or series. Thanks in advance ! > The engine runs flawlessly and gets 45 MPG local driving and 54 MPG > highway. [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > > Thanks in advance ! I sort of had the same problem with my 90 accord. I constantly monitored the rad and the reservoir, and I could occasionally notice small puddles under the car, but had a hard time finding the leak. My leak was around the thermostat housing, they supposedly fixed it but it still leaks small amounts. I now top the reservoir from time to time about once every 2 weeks. vlad |
