A significant hose leak definitely fits your symptoms: coolant level goes down in engine, and none is drawn back from the O-F tank.

I think the external seal leak scenario is relatively rare.

Yeah. Possible, but highly unlikely. Again a pressure test will show for certain where the leak is.

It's the same tool Autozone has for rent. If you have a stock AST, you'll need to get something like the Stant #12027 adapter to test the system. The adapters in this particular kit will only test the caps.

Ok, I'm renting one frm Autozone. Thanks for the tip Dave.
