Re: Coolant alarm
DO NOT remove the header tank filler cap, when you remove the screw there will be enough of a vacuum to stop coolant pouring out, make sure the coolant has cooled, if you have already opened the cap, replace and run the engine until hot then let it cool before removing screw, obviously dont leave th...

Re: engine check light on dash
Have you checked your spark plugs, had one with a weak spark on my old car and that produced a check engine light.
Didn't have any missfire to point to spark plugs
