Sorry about posting in the wrong forum. I replied to a post I found with a search. Thanks for the replies.

I did not find oil in the coolant when I flushed. I will now change the oil to check for coolant. I also found some other checks on sensors in other posts, but after the next paragraph, you may agree it will be in vain.

After just now limping home, I found that my coolant is empty after filling it with the new stat about 4 days ago. I see no signs of leakage on my driveway, no steam out the front, and when I first put the stat and coolant in, I let the car get hot (normal temp) and saw no leaks.

This would leave me to believe that it IS consuming coolant - I suppose that means HG replacement? Burning it with the oil?

Any thoughts on how extensive the work is on that? My bigger concerns are with tearing down this motor with so many miles; I would expect to create more issues along the way.
