Coming back late last night, hit the heat on (it was very cool in Western MA), adjusted it to 64-degrees to take the chill off...
at 2:30am, decided it was time for some shut-eye, pulled into the rest area, caught about 1 1/2 hours of sleep...
feeling rested, starting driving, got about 10-20 miles, then realized that my temp gauge was into the red !!!
hadn't noticed it before, so I think it must have just happened when I drove off from the rest area...
everything was running fine, no smell, no exhaust... kept going till the next rest stop...let it sit for a few minutes, turned on the engine, the gauge went all the way up.. hmmmmmm
figured I would wait till it was light out, so got some more sleep...
at about 6:30am, checked under the front, yep, coolant on the pavement.. and the resevoir was empty..
I did have a half-filled jug of anti-freeze in the trunk.. just needed some water...ah, bought a couple of gallons of Poland Spring....mixed it, put it in, gauge went back down to normal... got home alright...
hasn't leaked the rest of the day (at least not yet)..
don't see any obvious holes in any hoses..... having the mechanic check it tomorrow....
With Poland Spring water, it should run forever !!!
