Best to use a pressure tester, as many leaks only happen when there
is pressure in the system.
Check the radiator cap, and seat, but likely if you loose coolant
this time of year it's not a poorly sealing cap. Won't get hot
enough to fully pressurize (or boil).
Look in the BOTTOM weep
I assume you mean 84 TD. Its the same transmission but will require the
back plate be swapped, the TD has speedo cable, SD has electronic.

Not too bad of a job. I've done it twice on SWMBO's 240 and once on my 240.
Reason doing hers twice is I used a McParts W/P the first time it lasted
2 years
before it started to puke H2O from the bearing, Stealership and My Indy
didn't
have one in stock and Wifey needed the car the next

feel cars should be judged after they have 100K miles or so on them
before making any judgements about quality.
My 2005 CDI has 101k on it. Still drives fantastic! :) The fit and

Almost easier to list the ones that are _not_ glued in:
114/115, 123. (And probably the older ones,
such as 108, 110, 113, etc.)
Glued:
107, 124, 126, 201, probably all newer.

#2 the little stub hose under the thermostat housing. It looks quite
suspicious. IIRC its a strange size, anybody know it? The one there is
really nasty, years of oil dripping on it haven't done it any favors...
That's often to blame, because it's harder to replace than
the others and out of
