@skucera Take a look on the passenger side valve cover for your coolant leak, it could very easily be the the throttle body heater. It will never hit the ground, you can smell the AF though.

Richard, thanks for the pointers. I took a black light to my engine bay last night and didn't see any hint of coolant dye fluorescing anywhere. It was a little disappointing. I think I'll try to borrow a pressure tester from one of my local auto parts stores to see if the leak pops right out under pressure.

I've got to start another thread on reviving this rig, because the "what I did today" is awkward for continuing diagnosis and repair.

Frustratingly, some only show under heat. I put in a Britpart elbow pipe that split, but would not leak until hot. That said, you should find it.
