Also,

The floor on the pass side is not damp like it was that one night.

Driver side is also dry.

Hmm...I mean I know I only drove it for a little bit, and I'm still going to replace the heater core since It can't hurt to do it anyway.

But hell, I need to figure this out.

I guess I've never seen a car that has a blown heater core leaking underneath the car itself

 

Check the small hose at the back of the head.

 

Where is this hose at?

I can't find a small hose?

There are some metal pipes. Would this be from the bottom or when I'm looking from the top

 

I just lifted the car up.

It seems the leak runs right through a hole in the middle of some mount that is close to the Axle. Right where it comes out of the transmission.

I see a hose above that mount that looks like it runs to a turbo pipe.

It does this only after the car reaches operating temperature

 

It seems there is something to do with a hose or something by the turbo.


I have no idea what to do.

Suddenly, it seems that this car will either be sitting for a year or so, or I'll have to sell it as is.

I don't have money to fix it or even take it somewhere for an inspection.

 

The small hose I am talking about is on the back of the head by cylinder 1 like just above the exhaust.

 

Captain Jump to Conclusions here.

It was that hose! I think.

There was a TINY pin hole in it. I couldn't even tell it was there until I saw a small line of coolant on the hose and then accidentally pushed up on it causing a small stream to **** out onto my face.



So now I have this $150 heater core that I can't use...lol

 

owned....

can u return it? if not ill give you $20 for it, you can at least get something back hahaha.

 

LOL

I have to go into CarQuest and ask them. They might. They are stand up guys and know everything about anything. It helps that we know them well as a family. It has been a mont though...so I don't know.

If not, I have a heater core for WHEN mine goes out.

 

Glad it was not all that bad.

 

If your heater core is still original you might need replace it anyway.
I just replaced mine while doing my evaporator, it looks pretty beat.

BTW, thank you very much tech! Your evaporator replacement write-up helped so much!

 

Glad it helped!
