coolant leaking cant find it.. preasure test?
Sunday, September 10, 2006 2:59 PM
My car was almost bone dry of colant I just noticed today when the light came on. I cleaned it up underneath and filled it back up. I then let it heat up and checked what I could see. None of the hoses seems to be leaking but it does look like right under the rad, where that little traugh is directly under the rad where ir runs across. Kinda looks like a guard. I can see colant in it. It's smokin a bit from burnin off the colant but I cant see a leak. What do you recommend I do.

I'd put a UV dye in the coolant and see if you can find the leak with a blacklight.
