Well..... Once one thing goes wrong, many other wrong things have fallen suit. Now I have a coolant drip on the drivers side rear of engine.... Anyone else have similar and what the heck it might be??????

Thanks Again

 

Possibility it's a head gasket leaking at rear of block and fairly common. Best to get underneath with a bright light and take a look up to head/block mating, should be easy to see if dripping there. Good if not there and looking around with light/inspection mirror may help find source. Does it drip at any particular time or constant. How are your temps and coolant loses which you need to monitor closely? Good luck on finding and fix.

It just started dripping, noticed when I pulled in last night. No overheating. How much?, I just can't tell quite yet. I will climb back under this afternoon and try and take a look. I need to go buy a mirror.

 

The round dot on block had small bubbles pop up around it and the bolt coming out of the side of the block looks to be leaking as well.

 

And just above this bolt is some sort of block like thingy. Has electric going to it. It has fluid around it as well.

 

Last but not least is a small oil drip out of this plug. How the heck do you stop that???

 

Difficult to ID locations of your photos except last one apparently near oil filter at front of engine. Finding leak sources often require cleaning/degreasing and flushing well with water. Some of what you see may be small seeps that will eventually create a drip versus
an active drip/leak. If unable to easily find source using a cooling system pressure tester may be in order.

Have you checked area around your throttle body heater or noticed coolant on top of LH valve cover?
....

 

Yes, even bought a mirror It was dry under the throttle body where the throttle body heater is. The last photo with the oil filter was a small oil leak from that plug. I have already gone through 4 cans of engine cleaner under there.

The coolant leak is coming from the drivers side of the motor towards the firewall. Just in front of the transmission. From the bolt coming out of the side of the block (looks like there are 4 or 5 of them running down the block) It is the last one towards the back. Also, the little circle next to the oil pan has bubbled out something, oil or coolant, very small to see.

 

Oh..... The head to block is dry. Mirror helped with that location.

The bolt I am referencing too is at the bottom of the block, bolted into the side of the block.

 

Well, I tightened every bolt I could get a wrench on and tapped that little circular disc plug looking thingy with a punch and hammer. And the coolant leak in the back of the engine looks to be history.

The slight oil leak up front might be coming from a plug near the oil filter. One plug just above the filter has a washer inside of it. I think it is either leaking from that one or the oil cooler hose connection. So I cleaned the area and put gasket maker on the threads of the oil cooler hose and tightened it back down.

We shall see ........
