Losing coolant
#2

First of all…good job on keepin that engine clean and tidy!

Second….the tank you see on the left of the picture is the overflow tank. It should be about half full of coolant.

With the engine cool, open the little door on the drivers side above the radiator / CAC. Take the cap off and reach your finger in there. (There is also a sight glass but it is really hard to see). I would add water to bring the level up to just below the level of the cap. Any extra will go into the overflow tank.

Open the door on the drivers side by the radiator / CAC and look closely at the bottom. Use blue paper towels to jam into nooks and crannies. They turn dark blue when exposed to liquid. Try to figure out where the leak is coming from.

Are you sure it is coolant?

Just some thoughts to get you started. Gurus, if I misspoke, feel free to correct me.
