Have a 95 V6, coolant is leaking can't tell for sure where but the drips are coming from the rear of the engine. Too much crap in there to see where it is coming from. Any ideas?
Also, drove it yesterday with the leak, ~12miles to get it home, ran fine, temp gauge in middle. Today started it up, toped off the coolant bottle, let it idle, and after about 5 minutes, WAM, the temp gauge was pegged, hot. Again, any ideas? Where should I start to track this / both down.
Thanks

 

Try posting in the SN95 section, you will get better results since this is the S197 section.

 

Thermostat housing?
Anyway, wrong section...
Moving this to the SN95 guys.

Where is SN95

 

You've already been moved, courtesy of a Moderator.

 

My courtesy is wearing thin though...
The OP reposted this in my section again.

 

Sounds like a blown head gasket to me.

 

Found the leak. Driver side freeze plug in the head, right up against the fire wall, small leak trickling out.
A can of coolant stop leak did the trick. Since I just picked up this car for free, I want to drive it around for a while & see what else it needs before taking the head off for a permanent repair.

 

Sorry guys, new to this forum, I hope I'm in the right section now

 

Yes you are.
Glad you found the problem as well...
