Cherokee leaking radiator?
I've developed a coolant leak in my '97 cherokee 4.0l. I drove 6
miles the other day and when I parked there was a sudden gush of
coolant which came from the hole in the front valance (or whatever the
large piece of rubber is called that covers the front of the engine
bay bottom). I topped up the coolant and now I have a leak that
eminates from somewhere at the front and collects on the valance
before dropping through the hole, using 1/2 the expansion tank
capacity each day. The temp guage is where it always is and I've
always topped up with antifreeze mix.
I've added a bottle of bars seal without much effect and have been
quoted £236 to supply and fit a radiator, but I can't tell where the
leak is, what with the A/C stuff and other gubbins in the way. The
top of the water pump looks dry, but are there other places where I
could spring a leak?
Thanks in advance...
