<snip> If I understand the way the system works, the header tank would have to be basically empty before the level in the radiator would start to drop. *** Not so I my experience... coolant is sucked out of the expansion tank 'cos it's lower than most of the engine. With a larger leak like a hose split, I've had the light come on but the expansion tank has been virtually full. I worked it out like this:- when the engine cools, instead of it sucking coolant from the expansion tank it just sucks in air through the hole. What about relocating it to the engine filler tube??? I've always found that place is the first to show lack of coolant when something's a miss. IMHO as always... Richard XJS-HE '83 (Steam powered, still)
