For clarity... Posted by Justin VanAbrahams [Email] (#32) [Profile/Gallery] (more from Justin VanAbrahams) on Tue, 17 Jan 2017 11:09:48 In Reply to: Re: Where did *my* coolant go?,, 85SLED, Mon, 16 Jan 2017 04:30:42 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
For clarity, I *know* there is a leak - when I pressurized the cooling system I could see drips from the belt side of the engine. It's not the radiator, it's not the expansion tank, it's something on the passenger side of the engine. It doesn't puddle because it only drips when pressurized, either by my tester or when the engine is running. It's not leaking a lot, but it is visible under pressure. I was just trying to figure out whether the leak is from the water pump, a hose, or something else so I know what to order.
Folks on another forum suggested it might be the "heater reservoir," an aluminum box bolted to the side of the engine above the water pump, mated to the engine with three seals. I ordered replacement seals, a new water pump, and a new belt and will check it out as soon as those parts arrive.
