Help - Strange coolant leak Posted by Haskell60 [Email] (#1511) [Profile/Gallery] (more from Haskell60) on Fri, 25 Apr 2014 20:46:09 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
I initially thought this was a headgasket issue, but now I'm not so sure.
Symptoms: Car runs great for a drive, even over an hour. After car sits for 12-24 hours, puddle of coolant appears under the engine.
Oil does not have coolant in it, and the coolant does not appear to have any oil. Temperature gauge is always ok, but it is virtually all highway driving.
I am thinking maybe this is a water pump or hose issue? I can't figure out what the delay in leaking is, however.
Any thoughts are appreciated. Am I ok to drive the car for a week or so as long as I check the fluids ever hour or so and top off as needed?
Many thanks, this board has been great! Rich
