Did a routine checked of my fluids today - coolant expansion bottle had dropped 
to below minimum in the last 500 miles. I've always had a slow loss of coolant, 
but this is a little faster than I remember. In the early days of the 2L (first 
500 miles) it was due to a blown head gasket, but it has continued since then 
at a steady but lesser rate. I've looked everywhere, but can see no tell tell 
signs and the oil/coolant show no contamination. I can usually smell coolant 
when it has been driven in the rain.

I've looked in all the places I can think of but the coolant must be going 
somewhere. Any hidden places to look that I might have missed? The radiator is 
an FM twincooler, all hoses are silicone (Samco) with constant torque clamps, 
block was a '96 and it has a complete '99 head.
