Coolant
All,
I have an issue with the coolant system. I replaced the catch can with a new stainless steel one because I kept getting air trapped in the motor and it would not idle down. The original plastic catch can was cracked. I replaced the can and the hoses. I tighted down all the clamps and I still have air entering the system? The low coolent light comes on when I restart the car after a session on the track or a drive thru the street and I have to continuously add coolent or tranfer it from the can to the motor at the goose neck to purge the air. There are no leaks that I can see.....and the spark plugs look good with no steam coming out the tail pipe.
Thoughts?
Jim
