Hello Marc,
i experienced the genset antifreeze issue.
1. I found that the recirculation hose from the genset to the radiator had leaks due to age.
2. I had a small leak on the radiator core.
3. I had a small lead on the hose connection on the back side of the radiator.
4. i had a small drip on the thermostat housing.
finding and fixing each leak was a task because each one was small but totaling them up was a lot and it did require close watch on the fluid levels. since them, I add some coolant but nothing serious. 50/50 mix works for me. I don't add straight antifreeze or water, always a mix.
hope you got all your repairs done and are traveling smoothly.
