Not really sure what to do from >here. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Two possibilities: a leak somewhere that the fluid evaporates before it hits the ground OR a headgasket problem. Try checking it when very hot and see if you can spot or hear a leak. If not, you need to have a mechanic pump it up (pressurize it) to check for internal leaks. It wouldn't hurt to tight all the cooling system clamps and see if it goes away. Bob
