Leaking underneath intake? White smoke?
Does that sound like a coolant leak? God i hope so, i'll try to get some pics/video it's the first time it really happened to me lately. I just had the fuel system worked on(strrrooong fuel smell) so im hoping that that's not it... fuel wouldn't drip/smoke white right?
I've tried searching it but it's fairly specific and hard to describe in a search! hahah thanks guys love the rx7's just hoping that i didn't get into a dead one! |
there are several coolant lines around the manifold that could be looking. also check the heater hoses

thanks guys i'll start looking into that!
it's off of the engine, lovely tell-tale "psshh" sound when it drips onto it thanks again! |
90 degree coolant hose may be leaking, especially if they were lazy and didn't put in on right, or made a new one that was too long and it got pinched.

coolant flow is thru the upper intake manifold ,lens can be old and might need replacing
is white smoke outta tailpipe? 87rx7chick(using BF's username) |
