how do you see the coolant container?
Yeah it sounds like a dumb question, but I am trying to check the coolant level on my Acura (Type-S if that matters) and I am not able to see the level, because the only angle I can look at the damn thing is from above! In the manual they have a drawing with the usual MAX -MIN indicators, but the picture is from the side of the container which is covered by the hood in Acura.. Am I right or am I just being dumb?
Please help, I think the coolant container may already be empty..
thanks

I like to see it at a glance too so I removed the battery, moved the tray back three inches with a few new screws (towards the intake) re-installed the battery and marked the now exposed resorvoir with magic marker lines showing high and low. Just my 2 cents worth.

I just set a flashlight on top of the container. The upper and lower fill lines are actually bulges in the side of the tank.
When you do that, it's very easy to see the level by looking down the outside of the container.
Hope that helps!
