Not everyone has an owner's manual. I can't get mine to stay off; no matter how much fluid I put in it, the light flashes in the corners. It must be the Gs I'm pulling. Once I get off my stock suspension, I will be unstoppable!:evil5:

There was a thread a few days ago about someone that had the same problems with the light staying on. I think he added some foam to his float and it fixed his problems.

This thread confuses me.
Somehow teh museum/birdcage is related to the power steering pump, then the alternator, but now it's better, but you might need a water pump?

This thread is messed up. It's all my fault, I was high when I started this obviously I am on crack. I can't believe we bought this car and I love this car. Hence the grand I am about to put into it.

the float in the resivoir bottle might be stuck,faulty or just not working right. there might bea load of crap in there that you will have to clean out that was left by the previous owner.
if you continuously lose water,you obviously have a leak somewhere,if you have a bad water pump,it will start coming out of the "weep hole" on the bottom of the water pump.
but you replaced the bhg,right?

I also blew the right angle hose, I think it was the water pump bypass? You would know if it was that though, you would be spewing anti-freeze like a mofo. Scared the piss outa me when I was driving and saw steam and shat pouring out from under the hood.
