I have a 93 fd 51000 miles dp, catback, and intake.

every morning or after an extended period i have to refill my coolant with about 10-16 oz of coolant or a water bottle full (or almost full). But only after it sits and cools not if i drive it throughout that period. only if it sits for long periods of time (meaning overnight not days). I can see it dripping from the bottom of the car towards the front. there is usually a litlle puddle on the undertray, somewhat under the IC, that i can see from above the car, but when i get underneath the car and remove the tray i cant seem to find the source.

If any one has any suggestions to wear it is leaking from or has had a similar problem and knows how to fix it please let me know

Thank you,
Justin

 

First thing you should check and replace is the small top coolant hose to the twin turbo. They are not lined enough (1 layer) and will crack and burst. The bottom one is not as prone to burst for some reason (maybe it's the colder side). The engine is way to fragile from overheating. You need to trace it and fix it. If a hose burst and you overheat, it's too late for the engine.

 

thank you i will check it and replace asap. is that viewable from above the car?

anyone else

thanks,
Justin

 

anyone ?

 

Not on a mostly stock car. Too much clutter in the way. I'd get a work shop manual and start tracing the cooling system. There are only so many places where there can be a leak. Or bring me the car and I'll take a look. I'm local.

 

ill see if i can find it if not ill def bring it by you. thanks for your help.
