Subject: UrgentHelp re; Coolant =
System
Hello List, I need some advice. I just got a =
call from
the people who borrowed my Syncro saying that the temp light was =
flashing and
coolant was coming out of the engine compartment but the temp guage =
was not
indicating that it was overheating. I asked where the leak was =
coming
from and they said it was from the indentation next to the blue cap on =
the
expansion tank. Isn't that where the temp sensor should =
be? I gave
the van a tune up and checked everything out the day before they took =
it on
their trip and the sensor was there. Do these things "pop" =
out? I
told them to stick a cork in the hole and get to the nearest service =
station
and to make sure that the coolant is not leaking any more. Was =
this good
advice or have I sent my Syncro to it's death?
TIA
