I appear to have a small coolant leak which appears on the near side chassis member underneath the coolant bottle and I have looked around his area and could not find any trace of the leak
Tried to post a picture with no success
Regards
John

It's the various hoses and fittings at the back of the engine, hose clips probably need doing up.
Mr Neoprene did a post with pictures on this very issue with his, iirc he replaced some of the hoses.

John, check the hose clips on the coolant tank. They sometimes develop a slight leak which runs down behind the washer bottle onto the chassis rail.

I had a similar issue in this area. After much liking I found the washer bottle had cracked at the back out of site. A small amount of silicon sealant on thecrack stopped it

Have you tried Evans Waterless coolant because if no water there should be no leak, unless there are fish involved?

Well at last fixed the leak
It was on the heater expansion T Piece
After replacing I could not find any crack or pinhole on the old one however it could be when it gets hot the crack appears !!!
