This olds has been running hotter than it should be for several thousand miles. Never really "overheats" but it will dip into the red on the thermometer and as the thermostat opens up, it will go down, but not really where it "should' be. Today I noticed as I was checking trans fluid a great deal of steam coming from the exhaust. It quit after a minute or two. I have been loosing water, (about a quart on a 250-300 mile trip. Could I be loosing this water through the exhaust? If so, what is the cause. I changed the plugs and wires a week ago, and the old plugs were in good shape, no fouling etc.
