-----Original Message----- From: Vanagon Mailing List [mailto:vanagon@gerry.vanagon.com] On Behalf Of Roy Nicholl Sent: Friday, July 10, 2015 8:41 PM To: vanagon@GERRY.VANAGON.COM Subject: Coolant leak - it was bound to happen All, I went out to shift the Hyena ('88 WBX Westy) this evening and found a small damp spot underneath. A closer look and I see small drips of coolant coming of the rear of the engine (or the rear mount). The van has not been running in 2+ weeks, and I do not recall the leak prior. I check the expansion tank and it was just at the "min" line. I didn't have time to crawl underneath before dark this evening, but where the van has not been running, I'm hoping for a loose or cracked hose at the rear of the engine (AFAIK, the hoses are all original) and not the gaskets on the jacket. An suggestions or bets? As long as it's not the water jacket, I'll be happy. Roy |
