I have the same problem. I was told by a mechanic it is most likely a freeze plug, but it is so tight back there I can't see anything. I have been driving it for 6 months just adding antifreeze. But its getting worst. Has anyone got this fixed? Is it fixable without pulling the engine?

Why is your coolant leaking?

You need to explain more on where exactly the coolant is leaking. There are several possible reasons why your coolant is leaking. If it's from your main hoses that lead to and from the engine or radiator, you need to check the condition the hoses are in. If they're in a decent condition, it's not that. If it's leaking around where the hoses are connecting, it's probably not tight enough, or there is possibly a clog in your coolant line. Also get your radiator checked. If it's leaking into the passenger compartment, it's most likely the heater core.

94 Buick century leaking water change pump and thermo but still leaking?

Leaking or loosing coolant? If it is leaking then where is the leak? If it is just loosing coolant with no apparent leak, then you more than likely have a blown head gasket or cracked head. If there is coolant in the oil, or white sweet smelling smoke coming from the exhaust you definitely have an internal problem. Serious engine damage will occur if you continue to drive this vehicle.


Why does my318jeep use oil no leaks no exhaust smoke?

If you aren't seeing oil leaking in the driveway then it almost has to be burning it due to worn valves or pistons. There most likely is exhaust smoke but you just can't see it yet. One other thing to check is your engine coolant. A leaking main seal will allow engine oil into the coolant side of the engine which will turn your coolant a milky white frothy looking liquid.


What is the most likely cause of coolant leaking from the rear of the engine in a 2000 blazer?

You need to climb up and lean over the engine and run your fingers around the back 2 corners of the intake manifold and see if you get antifreeze on them. They are none for the intake gaskets to leak engine coolant. It is a common problem with the vortec engines. There are also 2 freeze plugs in the back of the engine where the fly-wheel is bolted to the engine that could be leaking engine coolant. There is also a heater core hose that goes into the rear left corner of the intake that could be leaking. The hose fits into a quick disconnect fitting that screews into the intake. It is common for the fitting to leak too,
