Hi all, I have an 85 Westy, no visible leaks externally. I leak tested it with 14 PSI no external leaks, but after a couple hours the gauge shows a small drop in pressure. After some driving (~200 km) the level in the antifreeze container(not the overflow container) is down a wee bit, and the gauge light blinks at startup for quite a while. I have always used the blue VW antifreeze since 1985. The mileage is 190000 km (~120000 miles). Does anyone know where the antifreeze is going? Thanks, Alfred 85 Westy |
