'92 900S. Intermittent coolant leak. Thought I was hot on its trail as I could see green drip-drip while watching from under the car so I put the car up on ramps and the leak stops-not another drop. However, I do think it is leaking from the one of the main radiator hoses going into the water pump, under the intake plenum, which is almost impossible to get to the c clamp to tighten up. Any method other than removing the compressor and large hose going from coolant reservoir? If that's not it I'm still stumped-it's not leaking from any of the hoses coming out/going into the heater valve at the firewall or anywhere else that I can see. There seems to be wet coolant under the compressor assembly bracket. I've tightened up every hose I can get to but not the two c clamps at the back of the water pump. Could it be the pump itself leaking intermittently?.
