Hello Bob Bancroft, The amount of leaking you are experiencing seems minimal. An easy thing you can do, is retorque the heads. A big leak offender are the head gaskets. Newer materials will cure most of the leaks from the old gaskets setup. You can also do a coolant pressure test. Look at the radiator cap, and pressurise the system with 10% more pressure then the pressure stamped on the cap. Any more you may couse coolant componet damage. Do the test with the engine (OVERNIGHT COLD). When the engine is warm the heat expansion has a tendency to seal the leaks, and you won't fid them. Good Luck..............................Guido
