theres a strong smell of burning coolant coming from the drivers side of my gfs precidia....... big clouds of it every so often...... car doesnt overheat but runs in the middle...... theres no tank to be able to read how much coolant in the engine on those cars like jbodys do......
shes had a problem every week with this friggin car.....about 2 months ago her mechanic replaced a hose cause it had a pinhole in it and was causing steaming....... what could it be? its a strong burning smell of coolant im sure......
leaking?radiator? any ideas thanks, vewry appreciated
car heats up VERY fast....... idles high every so often, no visual signs of leaking on the ground...could it be internal?
Check the oil and see if there's coolant in it. If the engine runs okay that prolly isn't the problem, but you never know. Or check the seals around the waterpump, thermostat, all that and see if it's leaking around them. It may be leaking and boiling off before it hits the ground. Is it actually losing coolant from the radiator or does it just smell funny?
Be kind to dragons, for you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup.
take it to a mechanic or radiator shop and have them do a cooling system pressure test. thats the best route to go to be certain.
is there any coolant on the top of the tranny? if so chck the upper rad. hose
