My 1992 lumina was losing coolant in that long pipe/hose contraption that goes around half the engine compartment to get to the heater inlet/outlet. That had rusted through down by the wheel well, where salt gets thrown on it. It was difficult to find, because it would seep out as I was driving and not leak much when the system was not pressurized. Also if yours has that heater inlet around the thermostat, that failed for me also, but leaked a little for a long time until the junk metal finally failed completely. I’d say pressurize the cooling system and look for visible leaks first. ‘Course you did say that you can lose the whole overflow tank in 40 miles…

DaveNapa sells a silicone product called Sil-Glyde. That might not be the exact spelling. I use it on caliper pins and rubber bushings.

I recently changed all the mounts, because they were terrible. Exhaust is not touching body or suspension. Rear suspension needs work. Maybe the car vibrates so much because the rear suspension is worn out.

I like the shortcut. But do you need the new stud to be full-length? Why not cut it shorter and get it in without grinding the head. I’ve done this to motor mount bolts that I deemed too long.

What happened with that large plug that you uncovered behind the panel? You sounded surprised to see it when the panel came off.
