Hey yall, I'm rebuilding a 289 I tore down a long time ago, and there's this hole on the side of the block that looks like it may go straight into the coolant passages. But I can't for the life of me find out what goes there and where it runs to. I've got a picture of what it looked like when...

I just did a complete flush and refill on my rescue pony (02 GT) and after a couple of short drives I checked the coolant and the reserve tank was nearly empty. I remember thinking that it didn't seem like the system held nearly the 16 liters that the internet said was the capacity of the system...

I recently purchased a 96 mustang cobra and the car was overheating so I flushed and replaced the coolant, but no help. Every time I drive the car for about 20 mins the engine bay smokes and theres hot coolant leaking from the reservoir. After some research, I am going to replace the thermostat...

Been having problems with coolant boiling up and out of the cap on my '06 GT after I drive it longer than ~10 minutes. Tried to use the Autozone coolant pressure tester, but every time I try to use the tester's pump, the pressure never holds and I can hear/feel air hissing up out of the...

What should I do to determine where the coolant leak is? It is leaking coolant where the pictures show onto the sway bar usually then to the ground. I cannot see a leak in the back on the engine like where the heater hoses are. What should I do to troubleshoot this? This is NOT condensation like...

Alright, so long story short, I bought a block second hand after I ventilated my last one at VIR. I'm on the process of putting everything back together and found this hole on the driver's side, circled in green. Its stripped out and I'm pretty sure I'll have to drill and tap it to stick a new...

So I was performing maintenance on my 99 v6 3.8 this past weekend, I replaced the valve cover seals and lower and upper intake manifold gaskets. Reassembled the engine completely and started it up. Car ran for approximately 15-20 while I was bleeding the coolant system. I loosened the upper...

yesterday I was changing engine oil when I noticed that there is some coolant leaking (one little hot drop on My Head :scratch:). As I replaced the water pump last month so I thought one of the hoses claps not tie enough. I start inspecting and I found some rust and little coolant drops coming...

I bought a 2002 Mustang GT for my first car a couple of months ago and checked the coolant. Yupp, looked like iced tea! So I decided to to do a flush. First I drained it and took out the petcock for better flow and will replace after flush but not very much came out so I thought that I was just...

I have coolant pooled up under my upper intake manifold near my passenger side valve cover. I recently replaced my thermostat and have a coolant sensor that I still need to put in. I can't tell if it's leaking from a cracked manifold or if it's a bad intake gasket. Which is more likely and how...
