Also I can't shake the feeling that it's somehow related to the random odd cylinder misfires, which I actually never solved, and that behavior never changed. | |

There's too many variables for me to definitively say where it came from but: There's actually a few leaks; one is near the reservoir tank and it tends to run down behind the battery, where it is upstream from the intake. Also any coolant that drips out of anywhere around the radiator on that car tends to sit in the splash shield, and flows around over near the filter intake. Plus any coolant I may have spilled. It also could have been a one time thing. | |
