Worlds Strangest Coolant Leak... (Page 1/1) sultan86GT MAY 05, 06:20 PM This is an updated post based on my previous one: quote Recently I left my mostly-stock 86 gt running to recharge the battery (stupidly) unattended, and a small coolant leak I forgot about over the winter meant most of the coolant was spewing out under the hood causing a major overheating situation. I fortunately seem to have caught it just in time to avoid severe engine damage on the sub-30k mile engine. However, coolant is absolutely pouring from somewhere on the passenger side of the block. Doesnt seem to be coming directly from the water pump but I could be wrong. Any ideas on how to figure this out? I heard that freeze plugs can be blown out by overheating and thought that might be possible, but I cant find any diagrams with their locations to start looking. Thanks for reading! I filled up the coolant again today to try to find the leak, and the strangest thing happened: it didnt leak! I started the car up and there was no/minimal dripping from the original spot. After turning the car off though, coolant suddenly seemed to drain from the original location very rapidly. Has anyone ever seen a similar situation or have any idea whats going on here?

For sure. Starting a new thread for every post by the OP on the same topic would soon totally mess up the forum. sultan86GT MAY 05, 06:39 PM My bad, I see what you guys mean.
