Lately I've noticed a small amount of coolant around the filler neck on the expansion tank of my port engine, a Ford-Lehman 120 with just over 3,000 hours. I clean it up, but it reappears after a few hours running. A check of the coolant in the tank after the engine cools down shows no noticeable drop in level. And the engine seems to be running at proper temps. I suspect this may be an early sign that my head gasket needs replacing. Your thoughts?
