Default Coolant Leak
Hey all,

I recently purchased a 2002 ST4s with fairly low miles. I took it for my maiden voyage with it this afternoon only to find it has a coolant leak. Is this a common ailment?

Thanks,

Martin

NO, not really. Do you know where it's leaking from?

I'm hoping it is either a loose hose, but I bet it is a cracked overflow tank.

FYI, if anyone is interested, it turned out that the previous owner just had WAY too much coolant in the system. Drained, flushed, and refilled and now no problems.
