    Hi, just wondering if you guys could help me find a antifreeze leak. It is all over the battery and fuse box. On all the pulleys and belts. Looks like the hoses are still connected. I haven't searched around a whole lot yet just got home and could smell it and she was running warm at stops.

    i would not drive it that far. its gonna over heat and then you'll be posting about knocking sounds in the engine.

    Coolant elbows will fail completely and leak every drop of coolant out in under a minute. Call of work or find another way. It's cheaper than a new motor.
