WATER LEAK,check header tank cap,plastic expansion tank overflow,radiator and hoses,engine block..how much coolant does it use,any white smoke,any overheating issues(radiator failures are quite common on the classics),it happened to me....GOOD LUCK...

Looking for one of these, i've owned three through the years (middle and Right at the same time), all before scoobynet was started, wish i'd kept one of them, very rare.

its a Subaru XT coupe.

checked everything mate had new samco water hose kit and new radiator, cleaned the whole system out and re-filled it, there is no smoke no mixing of oil and water and no overheating unless ive lost coolant then it overheats due to no water in the rad got a blitz radiator cap with the higher pressure too, its really put me off scoobys being my first aswell the water system is so complicated for what it is really its sent me
