How do you fix and antifreeze leak?

Answer 1

First find the leak:

• Do not wash the engine bay! The dirt will be rinsed off by the leak and this helps in the following step.
• Look at the engine and folow the coolant up from the lowest point you can see it. A general rule is The trail will get narrower the closer you will get to the leak
• When you get to the highest point of the trail that's where the leak is.
• Sounds easy? You need a good small flashlight, a small mirror on stick and the ability to remain calm and focused
• Expect to remove covers, air intake pipes, and so on.

If the leak is not evident this way you will have to rent or borrow a cooling system pressurization kit to cause the leak to reveal itself.

The repair will be dictated by what is leaking
