Well, while your working on it I would suggest using just water at least for now. So far I have yet to boil my fluid and it kills the grass where I work on the truck and cost just far too much. I will return to using AF and waterwetter once I have my issues finally resolved 100% (right now I'm having issues with what I think is crappy thermostats)
Also on a side note, after my last flush last weekend I seem to be losing fluid "somewhere" like you. I can't find a leak anywhere, nothing hits the ground at all, and I can't find a sign of leaking on the engine...yet. I did the flush Monday, checked it Wednesday and the overflow was empty and I was able to add maybe 1/4-1/2 a gallon of water. Checked it again today after driving home last night and back into work today (about 25 miles) and it seems like it might be about an inch lower in the overflow then it was.
Going to dig into it again this weekend, was going to add all the correct fluids then, but I'm going to hold off for now until I track down this leak.
