Question LOSING FLUID?


Anyone lost any fluid out of their intercooler resoivor? I noticed it was a quart or so low last friday.Topped it off Saturday. Added two quarts yesterday. Just wondered if anyone has had a simular problem. I don't see a leak any where.

HIGH RISK-

Check out the INTERCOOLER RESERVOIR thread. Last post 10/8/99. I've been watching my fluid level like a hawk. No change so far.

I've been losing it for quit some time now. It has to be filled about every 3 days or so now. I'm waiting to take it in after our dragstrip closes this weekend.

Are you going to Milan on Friday? I plan on being there.

PFA,
Yes, I'm going to the Dragway tonight. I put 100 miles on it yesterday and let the I.C. pump run in manual for almost an hour in my driveway while I got under and jiggled every hose connection. Couldn't find a trace of fluid anywhere. The only thing I thought of was maybe when I launch it hard the fluid was sloshing out the cap of the reservoir. I'm going to grab a new cap from work the rad. cap on the Expedition's are the same thing with a 15 psi rating.
I'll see you tonight.

Mjolnir-
Lightning has been running great. Haven't had the boost drop out again, yet.
