coolant
Just checking over the landy at the weekend and noticed i have lost some coolant, not much but its below the correct level in the header tank. It appears to have blown out through the cap as the tank had evidence of orangy/red coolant on the outside.

Why would this happen, and would it be ok to top up with the recommended castrol/texaco coolants as per handbook?
