So, for over 2 years, I have seen drops on my hood near the Grill.
Covering the full width of hood & traveling up about 2 feet.
I checked all the fluids and determined it was Coolant.
I could not see any leaks, so I added the 'dye'.
I checked around all the hoses, thermostat, & water pump using a ultra-violet light.
Still I could not find the leak.
I went to a Mechanic & he could not find it.
As time went on, the drops became more noticeable.
Finally, I saw some coolant on the A/C coils.
This was right in front of the side tank seam.
Because the A/C coils were blocking the view, I could not see the leak.
Saturday, I went to NAPA & bought a new radiator (Made in Canada) $152.10
Sunday, I put new radiator in.
Today, after checking with ultra-violet light, determined - no more leaks.
I am happy.
Those dyes work nice.
