I am completely stumped.
I have a new 3-core aluminum radiator. A Flex-a-Lite fan, new performance thermostat housing, new stat, good water pump, all new hoses and my car is using coolant.; a lot.
It's not over heating but it but it obviously gets a lot warmer once the LOW COOLANT light trips. I have to dump a full gallon in the over-flow while it's warm and running while the stat cycles.
I have no smoke, no leaks, no steam from anywhere. I don't get it. I use distilled water with Water Wetter. The coolant seems to perform its vanishing act when the car is running. I also checked the oil when I changed it and it's clean.
Ideas?
