Doubt it. Going by the stock gauge. It just started climbing rapidly. Pulled over and opened up the bleeder on the pump to find air.

Car was down on coolant, I don't know why. Hasn't leaked out any coolant. Put it under pressure, and it holds ok. So I topped it off before it started to rain. Going back out in a bit to bleed it.

Might be the water pump leaking during high revs lol. Only explanation I got for it losing coolant. Oil is fine

**dawdaw** · 10-16-2015, 03:40 PM

Well if its not mixing with the oil that is great. It is either being burnt or externally leaking.

How much is it leaking

**Dan** · 10-16-2015, 03:48 PM

I'm not finding any leaks. There haven't been any spots where I've parked. It was a little smokey when it warm up a bit ago, but it's barely 50 degrees.

I put probably 1/8 of a gallon or so into the radiator. There was still some air in it, it's all out now though. Just gotta refill because a lot of air and coolant came out.

Where is it going?

**dawdaw** · 10-16-2015, 03:50 PM

Drop it off at my.house i will fix it

**Dan** · 10-16-2015, 03:52 PM

You would probably sell it

**Dan** · 10-16-2015, 04:07 PM

It's fixed. Running cold as hell. No leaks. Just a fluke I guess

**Dan** · 10-17-2015, 02:24 PM

Ok now that the car is fixed hopefully, it's time for winter mods.

I'm thinking about removing the A/C. Not because racecar, but because I drained the system last year to in order to get my radiator out and I haven't filled it yet. I don't even know if it worked before because I used it maybe twice when I first bought the car. Fresh air via the ttops are just that much better.

So if I do delete it, is there a way to move the alternator down where the A/C thing was but still being able to retain power steering? Thanks guys

I haven't had A/C for a long time now, it's really not that bad imo. There's a way to move it, search for alternator relocation bracket.
