New Wolverine uses antifreeze

Postby JP Lava on Mon Feb 11, 2008 2:28 am

My new Wolverine used about 2 ounces of antifreeze on the first 25 miles. since then it used 2 ounces in the last 75 miles. Anyone have a similar experience?

My wolverine developed a small leak where the coolant hose attaches to the engine (behind the left floorboard). I would remove the left floorboard and examine this area eally close. Derbis gets trapped up in there and rubs the hose. The main problem , from my point of view, is the hoses are made cheap.

Does anyone know of any aftermarket hoses that fit Wolverine 450's?

Hope this helps you,

Hey JP,
Did you ever find out where your coolant was going?
