Engine Cooling problem
2002 Kia Sedona 6 cyl Automatic 117000 miles

the temperature guage keeps jumping from the 1/2 way mark to the 3/4 mark. Up and down, up and down. I checked the engine coolant and it was low, so I put some in. When I came out later, the reservoir was empty. So I refilled it again. drove the car and the temperature did not flucuate at all. it stated just under a 1/2 the whole drive. I left the car over night, came out and checked the coolant and it was empty again. but nothing on the ground. what would be causeing that?
