Where is my anti-freeze going? igma17 04-08-2006, 01:30 PM
I have a 1995 3.1 v6 Lumina which is losing a lot of anti-freeze. I fill it up then in a 15 mile trip its low again. There are no visible signs of leaking. There is weird smoke from the back or anywhere. The oil is not a milky color. My heater works the same. So where is the anti-freeze going? igma17 04-08-2006, 01:33 PM Oh its not over heating too. gaspig 04-08-2006, 04:06 PM Check the rad cap as it may be leaking when under pressure...how much coolant are losing? dirty hands 04-08-2006, 04:32 PM I agree with the radiator cap being the cause My own car had a wee small head gasket leak going to the number 4 cylinder and never showed over heating or oil in the water but i was loosing water when the head got hot the leak took up Until the gasket blew and thats when we found the top of the number four piston was bright green :grinyes: Related Links Enter the largest automotive community on the planet! |
