Coolant leak front of coach
#1

Hello. We have stopped for the night in Abilene Tx , We are heading west, dropping down to I 10 for the rest of the trip to Riverside Ca. After registering at the rv park, we found a  small coolant puddle from the front area of the coach on the asphalt where we had been parked. Checked the genny coolant and it is fine, We have not used the gen set for a week or so. Checked he power steering in case i was really seeing p/s fluid. It was full.

I have been using coolant at the rate of approx 1 gal per 1000 miles since we bought the coach 18  months ago. I chalked it up to lack of an overflow can on the radiator, but I might have found the culprit. This drip would be more than one gallon per thousand miles

I see coolant dripping ever so slowly from the bottom steel plate that looks like it is the bottom for the gen set between the steer tires. I am assuming that there is a leak from the hoses that supply driver - passenger heat. I have looked for shut off valves from the engine to the heater. Does anyone know where they are on a 1984?  I could just trudge on keeping an eye on the temps and frequently check the radiator sight glass, but that seems risky?
