[s-cars] Re: [SOS-cars] Speaking of G-12 Coolant....

Have you looked at the coolant manifold under the intake manifold. This is
an area that leaks and is difficult to spot . Get a small mirror and take a
look. If this is where the leak is, also have the small hose in the same
area changed as it requires the same dismantling. The intake manifold has to
be removed to do this install. Eurotech did mine.
