Meaning the coolant in the system is not 50:50, more like 45:50 now. If not worse, because I have been regularly topping it off with the 50:50 coolant from subaru. Up until I added an extra bit of sealing to the system.
If both the cap and the reservoir have holes, what exactly does stuffing tape between the hose and reservoir do?
