Today i am digging out/moving my vehicles around to make sure i can get out tomorrow for work when i noticed coolant on the snow. A pretty good amount, maybe 1/2-1 cup total spread over the range which i drove the XJ.
Warmed up temp stays at 210, but my heat has been lacking (i just bought it 2 weeks ago). I checked the top rad hose, the bottom of the rad and the overflow container. The hose and radiator look good, old...but good. The overflow container however was empty. I can smell a very faint coolant smell (no smoke out of the exhaust), like its hitting the header/exhaust...? I cant tell.
Any ideas where i should start on this? I popped the cap on the rad, and because it was warm some coolant spilled. But after removing the cap, i could see coolant directly under it...so does this mean the radiator is full?
