"The saga of coolant loss"
I got an issue of my Ranger is using coolant I got a nice overflow tank. I had no issues until it got cold I went to use my heater no heat. I back flushed the heater core nice flow and heat after that. Now it seams to be loosing about 1/2 inch of coolant from the overflow tank each time I drive it. I does not overheat I checked all hoses and pressure checked the system and radiator cap all pass no issues. I checked the heater core drain tube that goes through the firewall nothing of a leak there eather. Any ideas of the coolant loss?
