[s-cars] Coolant leak and Servotronic

[Keith Franchetti]

Hi Lee-
Yes!  Oh, and what a difference it makes!  As you know.  It's under the steering wheel. You have to loosen a couple of screws. Near that owners' manual slot I believe. Looks very similar to the S6 servo relay. I'm trying to put my hands on it now so I can tell you any other identifying markings. But I'm not finding it. As I remember, might not be necessary to remove the whole panel. I remember peeking in with a flashlight and being able to remove without too much trouble. But it was a good 3 years ago, so that might not be exactly true. Not hard though.
