Took the car over for an oil change at lunch, also bedding the new pads for RA.
Funny little prison light in far left-hand corner kept coming on when I got on the binders real hard. Manual says its the radiator level. I'm wondering if it's not the sensor in the overflow bottle.
Regardless -- simply add some fluid in the overflow or what?
Do tell.
Thanks,
SJ

I do believe teh sensor is in the overflow bottle. Add a few ounces of distilled water and see what happens.

I can see some fluid in the over flow. I do have a bottle of 50/50 mix.
Maybe I'll just add some of that and see if it continues.
Thanks,
SJ

You are going about this all wrong. First and foremost , gather up the proper tools to do the job , as follows: 1 very cold beer , Spotted Cow or Fat squirel will do the colder the better ( brain freeze) next...... um...... uah Oh yah Some 50/50 mix. Step 1 drink 1/2 beer ( second 1/2 for part 3) Step 2 Pour the 50/50 radiator fluid mix in the resivor / over flow bottle. Now not to much just enough to get the light out ! Step 3 (as promised) REWARD yourself with other 1/2 of the beer for a job well done! It was a rough day and you may need to have another . That now is hard work made easy. Cheers ! SJ

DO NOT dump the beer in the coolant bottle and drink the 50/50 mix. Drinking anitfreeze will make you go blind.

SJ sounds like it's too late, but if you hurry up and pound a bottle of whiskey you might be able to dilute it. I don't know why you're not making a trip to the liquor cabinet right now... Well, get going already. You're still here? SJ, hang in there man I'm on my way. <grabs a bottle of whiskey and drinks it>  Oh crap, teh wishkey was supoats to be for you. I'm shorry.

Just read and article in a Medical journal ....NO LIE ! It says VODKA is actually the answer. So the WARNING IS AS FOLLOWS! MAKE SURE YOU LABEL YOUR BEER AND YOUR GREEN ANTIFREEEZE. ( ST. PATRICKS DAY COULD BE A PROBLEM) and NO you can't do littlle green shots either, that's just as bad. TH
