So recently my car has been getting low on anti-freeze but I cant seem to find any leaks. Today I decided to open the coolant resevoir after driving it and there was no pressure? Any ideas whats going on?
 
You have a leak.

The radiator could have a small leak.
The thermostat housing.
Any of the hoses.
the cross over tube cap might be leaking air.
And even the oil filter adapter gasket could be leaking.

There's not much info to work with in this thread. It's probably just a small leak, keep looking right after you drive it.
 
lets see if i can give anymore details... my car seems to heat up very fast but never overheats even after longer periods of driving, my resevoir slowly gets lower, theres never pressure in the resevoir.... I just removed the crossover tube cap to check for air and antifreeze bubbled out.... if that helps
 
I think the Marks in general heat up quickly, my 95 and 96 do.

I would guess its the oil filter adapter gasket. The leak can be slow, but not much evidence as the very hot coolant can evaporate quickly.
