    I got a coolant leak...a nasty one.



    It's not a very good picture of the leak, but if you click on it at least it's big enough to be annoying while still not being a very good pic.

    But anyway, it's leaking from that little elbow. I just want to know what the hell that thing is called if I have to get a new one, and I want to know if it just seals with o-rings, and how hard it is to get to? Also, how common it is to leak?

    Thanks

    $3 and 15 min fix.
    find elbows in help section at the zone, next to vaccum hose and stuff.
