I haven't tried to fix it yet. I've had it for the life of the truck (~2
years) and just check it weekly.

I'm going to do a cooling system flush soon so I'll probably tackle it then.
I'll replace the thermostat at the same time with a 180 degree stat now that
the truck has passed its first New Jersey emissions test (with flying
colors, I might add.)

Roger, Have you tried to fix it? Or should I just plan on living with this
for the life of the truck.

Absolutely. Mine leaks around the thermostat housing.

Has anyone ever had disappearing antifreeze in their dak(98)? In March when
I bought it, I smelled burning antifreeze after driving it, so I took it
back into the dealer and they fixed a leak by the water pump. Now the
coolant dipstick seems to be dry again? I don't smell it and I don't see
it. Any thoughts?

roger.
