Hello,

I had a similar drip in my '91 but it grew from one to two, to three, etc.
over the next four months. The coolant was coming from the weep hole of the
water pump.

I identified this wrong the first time,  and replaced the oil filter/cooler
before I found it. Make sure you know where the coolant is coming from
first.

If it is coming from the weep hole, this is the first sign of head problems.
My engine temperature gauges remained normal as well when the coolant drip
started until the water pump failed.

Scott
