Coolant loss




Hey i got a 94 mazda rx7 that keeps losing coolant from somewhere first it was a hose by the plug wires due to a clamp not being completely on put the clamp on correctly still seemed to be losing coolant after every drive i would top it off after topping it off ill go for a drive and after letting it cool down the coolant level would still be visible but at the bottom of the filler neck today when i turned it off i seen some coolant seeping through from the cap on the filler neck dont think it could be the caps because just replaced both of them a couple days ago purchased from the dealer ive replaced the water pump all the hoses with racing beat silicone hoses also replaced thermostat only part i haven’t changed is the radiator yet no wet spots on the floor or anywhere except at the filler neck that ive just realized, its not blowing smoke and its starting right up doesn’t overheat so i dont think its the seals i hope its not at least, really confused here would appreciate any feedback i can get just tryna get my baby running right again thank you

Is overflow tank full? Or how much coolant you have there when cold or when coolant is hot?

Thank you for replying greatly appreciate it had my friend who’s a rotary specialist look at it we did a couple tests like the champagne test and found out it was a coolant seal
