Water Temp

[rfkellner at snet.net (Rick Kellner)]

Craig, the light also indicates low coolant level.  It may be just low
enough to trigger during cornering or when the flow is at the maximum
and the level drops a little.  Once it is set the light will stay on
until the ignition is turned off and reset.  You may have to add a
little coolant.
Rick.

In addition to the disappearing oil, the water temp warning light went
on 
yesterday for no apparent reason after about 10 minutes of stop and go 
driving.  I pulled off, checked what I could, started back up and
everything 
was fine (no light).  It wasn't too cold out, about 55 F.  The gauge
wasn't 
indicating high, just the flashing red light.  Oil temp was also normal.

Coolant is due for a change before I head out to Oklahoma, but otherwise

looks normal with normal levels.  Oil is relatively clean too, as I have
to 
keep adding some every week.  Any ideas?
