[s-cars] Coolant Leak

[Lee Levitt]

Those tanks are a consumable item. They get brittle with age. I would replace it and see if the problem recurs.

Do you see any signs of leakage?

Best,

Lee

It only happens when it is cold out, I'm going to say below freezing, and the car sits idle for more than a few (let's say two) days.  Under these circumstances, sometimes, not always, the coolant overflow tank will empty.
