Why would a Lincoln LS leak antifreeze underneath on the drivers side?

most likely cause : reservoir too full
second cause : bad/loose hose
unlikely cause : cracked radiator/engine block
look under the hood, there should be a plastic "jug" labled engine coolant only. it has a min and max line. i usually keep mine in the middle. is it too full? low? just right? if too full it will work its way out and leak a little when you turn the car off. low? add more 50/50 antifreeze/water mix so its about half way
with the car running examine around all radiator hose connections, looking for signs of leaks (caution, motor and antifreeze may be hot!) especially on the big hoses. pay close attention around belts. an improperly installed hose can easilly run thu on a fan/acessory belt
last (with motor turned off, but slightly warmed) check your oil. is there what looks like water, or white/cream color impurities mixed with the oil? if so the block is cracked, amd the car needs a new motor. all other problems are easily solved by tightening leaking hoses, or replacing them

How do you fix Lincoln ls hidden antifreeze leak?
I had a 2000 Lincoln LS and the Antifreeze Reservoir had a rash of heat induced cracks on the side facing the Firewall. The antifreeze would ooze and evaporate without leaving a puddle but a whiff of the smell could be noticed on some occasions. My 2005 LS has some of the same cracks but has not started to leak or ooze antifreeze. Also on my 2005 LS there was an upper hose leak but only with 16 psi or more of pressure.
