Re: Coolant leak?

[Robert Smith <robert@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I found the cap on mine did not seal.  A piece of plastic
under the cap resulted in coolant tight seal.  Mine would
roughly stop leaking at the min level as well.  Someone
suggested to check to see if the overflow was blocked.
In my case it was not.
