Just wanted some input from the group before I tear into my truck this weekend.
Toward the end of last summer I noticed there was no coolant in the reservoir. Filled it to the line, and continued driving. The only difference I began to notice was that the truck wasn't warming up as fast as it normally does. As time progressed it began running cooler (indicated), with the needle never going past the 1/3 area of the scale. Its been that way since, and I again found the reservoir empty, but there was coolant in the radiator. So, obviously its leaking or eating the fluid somewhere. Does this symptom sound indicative of a specific problem? Or should I just trace the system and see if I can find a leak?
As always, thanks for the input.
