I thought I had looked for chafing, but not hard enough. On the way back from the rally, we developed a small coolant leak. I noticed it during one of my rest stop walk arounds. It was in one of the heater hoses off the valved manifold. So, I was lucky in that I could valve it out. We didn't really need dash heat in Texas and Mississippi last week. It was caused by one hose chafing on another. While working on this today, I found another heater hose with a worn spot. I have some hoses to replace.
Just another reminder to poke around underneath the engine and in the bay looking for hose rubs. Of course, crib it up for safety.
