I have had the same problem on my 93 1.5L civic for about a year and a half now. car runs good and doesn't overheat i just never have any coolant in the overflow even a couple days after putting some in there. radiator for the most part holds coolant. i add maybe half quart about once a month but my reservoir leaks faster than that. don't know the problem but it hasn't really been an issue for me.

My 94 civic ex with a stock d16z6 does this too. Like both members mentioned above it runs fine except for stuttering a bit between around 1000 and 1500 rpms but it runs fine otherwise. Anyone know what's going on?
