I learned the hard way years ago. I had a coolant hose leak on an Acura, and thought I could drive it 1 mile to get home. That 1 mile lead to a blown head gasket.

If it was losing coolant i would love to know where it went because it wasn't under the vehicle....?

Full coolant Tuesday morning. Drove.... about 50 miles total, never saw coolant leaking at any time, even after sitting in garage overnight
