places to look. question,how long ago did you use the coach?has it
been sitting all winter in a cold barn or otherwise?
detroits when sitting in cold winters can leak past the liners,when
it warms up they don't leak.i have a canadian friend that has
coolant in his oil every spring,he drains the coolant out of the oil
and drives it all summer,no problems. BUT! you need to drain all
that coolant out of the oil pan before you run the engine,coolant
and oil do not mix and coolant does not lube well,you can ruin your
engine,be very careful.
