hmm, has it been running hot at all?



the only place i can think the coolant would be going is steaming out the overflow, but thats highly unlikely.

When you refill it, do you open the air bleed screw on the radiator?

yea if the sensor isnt falling apart its most likely good, dont think ive seen one go bad, its a real basic sensor lol.



congrats on not having a falling apart one BTW....every one ive run into is cracked right at the top of the sensor and ready to fall off.



could just be air working its way around and around, might be a HUGE bubble, my 88 n/a just went through these problems lol (well without setting off the buzzer, just noticeably low when i checked it), and i do drain and fills on rads all day, i let that **** breathe for a LONG time and finally no more problemos.
