Coolant Leak!!
« on: October 13, 2006, 02:37:57 PM »
Hey There,

Well my 16 year old son comes home yesterday and says "The Samurai is smoking"  and " Oh
yeah there was something leaking under it at my friends house"    :o >:( ::)

So I look under the hood and find coolant splattered on the left side ( from my looking in perspective)  of the engine on the starter, hoses,  and side of wheel well. Anyway I filled it back up will fluids and ran it a  couple miles and it starts to run hot again.  Back home I look under the hood again and no fluids sprayed anywhere??  So this morning I go out and there is a puddle under it right between the mainseal and transmission and its still dripping off of the tranny and rear of engine.......

Any ideas..........  I suck at this stuff.

Coolant lines that go to the heater core.

Eric,

Where is the heater core?  And the lines to it.  I see two lines coming from the radiator
that go into the engine but none that are that far back.....

Ya check those lines and the lines going to the carb, and under the intake.  they get a hole and them then when pressure builds up they spray!
