Possible Causes
Leaking radiator hose, Loose hose clamp, Radiator core leak, Faulty drain plug or petcock
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Allow engine to cool completely before opening the cooling system.
- Identify fluid: Check color and feel. Coolant is usually colored and slightly slippery; condensate is clear water.
- Inspect hoses: Examine upper and lower radiator hoses and heater hoses for cracks or loose clamps. Tighten or replace as needed.
- Radiator check: Look for wet spots or white/green deposits on the radiator core. A leaking radiator should be replaced.
- Drain fittings: Ensure radiator and engine block drain plugs are tight and not cross-threaded.
