Dannymik Posted August 17, 2004 Report Posted August 17, 2004 Ok, my upstairs neighbor just told me that I'm leaking radiator fluid. I go outside to check the leak out and don't know the name of the part its leaking out of. I can tell you this much, its a part coming out of the firewall, left side of car behind the alternator below it for that matter. I will try and snap a picture of the leak so its coming if I dont have it hosted when you read this. Any help here? I notice the smell more so when the heater is on, but still smell it when its off( when I'm at a stop). Ok I have to get the camera out there for a picture, any help here? here it is Quote

Dannymik Posted August 17, 2004 Author Report Posted August 17, 2004 is it likely for them to just fall off...I'm uploading the 2 pictures right now Quote
94CutlassSLCoupe Posted August 17, 2004 Report Posted August 17, 2004 it looks like it did just fall off of there!!! if the clamp rusted out than it could...but I would never expect that to happen! Quote
GP1138 Posted August 17, 2004 Report Posted August 17, 2004 Wow... is there any way for you to resize those? I can't get a good idea of perspective scrolling here on the school computer's 1280x1024 res. Maybe when I get home, I have a 1600x1200 res 19" monitor.. Quote
Guest Anonymous Posted August 17, 2004 Report Posted August 17, 2004 That isn't even for the coolant. That's your A/C drip drain. Quote
Dannymik Posted August 17, 2004 Author Report Posted August 17, 2004 well I can't understand why I'm leaking fluid out of it? I'm getting so aggrivated with this car lately . Quote
94CutlassSLCoupe Posted August 17, 2004 Report Posted August 17, 2004 the fluid will come out of the condensor on a hot day after the A/C has been used...and I mean a TON...my blazer does this very often. Check the coolant level in the overflow tank AND the radiator Quote
Guest Anonymous Posted August 17, 2004 Report Posted August 17, 2004 It is just an open hose isn't it? Quote
Dannymik Posted August 17, 2004 Author Report Posted August 17, 2004 It is just an open hose isn't it? yes..I pulled off the little piece that its leaking out of Quote
Dannymik Posted August 17, 2004 Author Report Posted August 17, 2004 its small...kind of looks like a mini spicket on the side of your house Quote
Guest Anonymous Posted August 18, 2004 Report Posted August 18, 2004 Yeah, that's the A/C drain then. Should just be water coming out of it. Quote
Justin Posted August 18, 2004 Report Posted August 18, 2004 It's your heater core. If it leaks it drips out the drain. You smell antifreeze, so it's definitely coming from inside the heater box. Next! Quote
