After snooping around under the hood for a few minutes, I found that the coolant resovior was bone dry. I filled it with coolant, and after a few turns she started. But where is the radiator's fill cap?
Now I only drive 1.5 miles to work each way, the engine probably never got hot enough for the dummy guage to show high temp.
She's gonna sit till this weekend, or until I could get around to it.
I can't rule out anything yet.
Could the coolant be a coincidence?

BTW : You may be wondering why this guy doesn't know where the coolant gets added. > You don't have to lift the hood that often > nothing seems to break on this car. My wife just turned in her '97 I30 for the '02 I35. The tranny went on the old car @70K (original on the volvo), we're not too thrilled with the '02. She really wanted the s80> too bad we couldn't get a decent trade.
