Certainly a valid point, but I tend to doubt she's ever checked the coolant level. She's most definately not a car person!
The daughter tells me she doesn't remember her mom having any overheating issues. She also tells me there are no stains on the driveway from leaking fluids.
I'll check the plugs for signs of antifreeze steam cleaning next time I'm there. I'd guess a slow leak, perhaps loose clamps or seeping hoses or pump. I don't know yet as I haven't given the car a detailed going over.
She's trying to get it to pass smog, and the CIL is an automatic fail. Once that's cleared, we'll see what happens. She's also saying she wants to sell it, so I'm not sure she wants to invest a lot of cash. We'll see.
Mark :-)
