I need help from Dean and others....
After replacing the water pump i checked for leak find out the lower radiator hose was a bit loose. I empty the radiator by removing the lower hose... of course i lost all the coolant. Clean up the fitting, the hose everything install the lower radiator hose make sure is very tight. No problem here. No leaks from the lower radiator hose, the water pump or the pipes going into the water pump.
Yesterday I got home from work.. no leaks. Decided to remove the air shield... clean up the air shield and the lower cross member check the lower radiator hose and everything. It was wet. There is a leak somewhere.
Decided to release the pressure by removing the cap from the reserve container. NO LEAKS. Clean the air shield put it back in the car.
No leaks this morning in my garage.
Drive the car this morning to the office. At lunch time went outside to check the car and is LEAKING again. There is no leak from the lower radiator hose.
My first impression is coming from the drain plug.
I need suggestions. I am completetly loss with this problem.
Thanks - JohnInAtl
