ollienorth 0 Posted July 22, 2010 Report Share Posted July 22, 2010 I have had my carrado stood up for some 6 months now, finally found the time to have a look at it at the weekend and got it started e.t.c. Theres a massive water leak that runs down the front of the engine litterally cant fill the expansion tank quick enough. Cant see exactly what the source is but theres a bottle shaped component that has a large nut shape on it and this looks like it could be the source either that or the leak is just above this. Any ideas? Link to post Share on other sites
TheMainManRob 0 Posted July 22, 2010 Report Share Posted July 22, 2010 Could be seals in the oil cooler have gone or the crack pipe has cracked or its running down off the thermostat housing. Link to post Share on other sites
daleyboyVR6 6 Posted July 22, 2010 Report Share Posted July 22, 2010 Sounds like the oil cooler which has a couple of small water pipes going into it, maybe one of the hoses have split...................... (?) Link to post Share on other sites
ollienorth 0 Posted July 22, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2010 Yeah it does, points towards the radiator, I will get it up on the ramps tonight and see if I can identify the pipes going into it. I honestly didnt know that was the oil cooler so that helps a great deal thanks Link to post Share on other sites
