Newbie here, but do have some mechanical skill lol.... After messin around with some rice..Dude! they all think they can kill you by like 4 cars lol! I smell antifreeze now.....Sup wit dat?? Is it my heater core or a head gasket. The motor still runs great, no leaks(right now anyway), and there is no antifreeze on my foot lol!! HMMMM. What do you guys think?

first of all work on your english skills. second look under the hood real good. check your fluid level to see how much you are losing. i had the same problem and it was my overflow tank. just check all the hoses and fittings first

Well, I wouldnt think that it would be your head gasket if your car is still running "great". You would def. know about it if you had a blown head gasket. Also, do you smell it inside of the car, outside, or both?

Could be your radiator cap needs some replacin. Not sure what year you drive, but on my old '67 that was it, because antifreeze would kinda pool around the top of the radiator, but it wouldnt steam or anything.

Quiet, Pacepony, you work on your tact. I thought this was a mustang forum, not a study in dimorphism. This forum loves Mustangs, no matter how different we are. If you want perfect language skills and diction, then visit a Volvo Forum. Funny, everyone else writes with abbreviation. Some of us just like to write in the same way we talk at the local hangout. Anyway thank you, guys, for your input. Pacepony, your overflow theory sounds good. I recently installed an electric fan from a crown vic and moved the overflow the the other side of the radiator. I'll check the hoses again.

Also check around under the engine or in front and below the water pump. Although it's not hitting the ground, it may be seeping out. I just replaced my water pump. it was leaking out of the weep hole just enough to come down the front of the engine but not enough to hit the ground.

sorry i just had to do it. make sure you didnt put a hole in the radiator taking your old fan off and putting the new one on. its easier than you think
