coolant leak
i started my 95 gt the other moring and noticed some coolant dripping from inside the front bumper. I took it to the ford dealership to get it checked out and they said that there werent any problems with the cooling system and that the thermostat must have been stuck. About a week later my coolant light came on and i checked and the coolant level had dropped quite a bit. The car only has 71,000 miles so it has sat alot so im thinking the thermosat might just stick everyonce and awhile, but i want an outside opinion of what it could be. Thanks

It could be just a leak. I had the water pump seal go on mine this summer.
I couldn't figure out where it was coming from, so I unhooked the serpentine belt and spun the water pump pulley, and sure enough coolant came poring out.
Of course, when it really started to drip was when the engine had heated up, raising the pressure.
I have just shy of 90k miles on mine.

RE: coolant leak
Im getting a colant leak too, I dont know where its coming from too, Its not coming from the radiator or the water pump not even any of the hoses, I have to keep putting colant in every other week because theres always a puddle of colant in the middle of my garage. My dad tells me its a freeze plug, but I dont know which one it is, and im preety sure its not the ones on the heads, are there any other ones around that im missing? And are they hard to get to?
