Howdy.
Running an l1500dt (l175) and wondering if it’s normal to put in 1/2 gal(2qts) of water every run to top off the radiator. It holds 5.6 qts total
Water will leak out of the overflow tube and eventually stop then I’m worried it’s dry and stop doing anything for fear of overheating. It never whistles but I have ear plugs in anyway so not sure I would over the engine and the plugs. It doesn’t have a temp gauge or a overflow tank. I’ll eventually add both but haven’t gotten around to it yet.
Speaking of which. Is there a place on this z750 engine to put a temp sensor or will I need to go the top radiator hose method. I know others did the top radiator hose but just curious.
Thanks!
