i have plenty of coolant, the night before i overfilled it, and the resevior is still full... and the leak was only about 2 inch wide by 6 inch long.

were you massively leaking anything? because with my general understand of motors, if there is still some coolant in the motor it wont over heat as fast as NO coolant at all. but normally if your leaking anything bad enough, you should check what it is before you drive the car

Mowin8603

hmm... is your water pump leaking at all? like around it, under it, or anything other way?

87GTFury

no i wasn't massivly leaking anything, i just checked teh radiatior itself and it is still full up to the top... so i couldn't have overheated it...
at least not to my knowledge

87GTFury

I don't think so... where would that be located.... what side of teh engine.

Mowin8603

its actually in the front, like in between where the heads mount. itll have a little pulley like 2-3 inches indiameter coming out of it, inline with the belt.

No, the placer where its leaking is on the radiator like right under where the plug is to drain it... everything else is fine... i'm really concerned, cause i was expecting to get 1500 out of this car... and now i'm royally screwed.

Well i have to go to work now, anything that you could think of would help me out greatly....

If the fan is locked up then its a VERY good possibility that the h20 pump wasnt spinning at all and also couldve caused overheating.
