Mine too. I've just finished re-sealing the heads because of a water leak
only to find that there's a crack in the primary coolant tank, between
the pressure cap and the level sensor. Coolant is *gushing* out under
pressure onto the hot exhaust. Lots of steam! 8-)

Anyways - I ordered a new tank from Bus Depot on-line. It's on its way &
maybe I'll get it fitted on the weekend. Be sure when you're ordering to
order a gasket for the level sensor.
