However lately it's started to overheat on longer journeys: i.e. 30 + miles, and I fear the worst. Anyone had a similar problem? My next move is to introduce food dye into the coolant then get underneath to see if I can spot where it's coming out. I love my old Connie and want to hang onto it for as long as possible so any advice would be more than welcome...

Does the coolant bottle have an overflow outlet?
