fc t2 leak. please help
So from my previous thread i had success posting a video of the problem i was having and getting is solved be the geniuses on this forum so here is another one. As i was working on my car today, i turned on the motor to warm it up and noticed a constant drip behind the intake manifold. I'm unable to distinguish where exactly the leak is coming from and if its oil or coolant. i checked my fluid levels and they are all normal. if anyone knows what it could be or where its leaking from this video to help me fix it let me know. thanks for your help.

It isn't too hard. Definitely don't run the engine anymore. It will catch on fire. You will need to take the upper intake manifold off to get at it though. Good thing you noticed it now. Mazdatrix sells new pulsation dampers or some people just put a bolt in it. I personally bought a new one.
