Hi, I'm new to the forum and am looking forward to some good input on a problem I'm having with my '95 Explorer. When I park at night in the carport, almost every morning there will be a small puddle of antifreeze under the engine. I can't really see where the leak is coming from. I have noticed no white smoke at all, but do smell the antifreeze steam from under the hood at times. It is a slow leak because I rarely have to add more fluids. Also, it is definitely worse in cold weather. Please let me know if any other info is helpful.

Sure thing. I'm new and was a little confused. Thanks
 






You need to pressure test the system to see where it is leaking if you cant see the leak.
 






possibly your heater control valve is leaking.it sit's right above the exhaust manifold on the passenger side.

but you really should pressure test it if you can't find the leak easily.
 






Thanks for the advise. I'll get it pressure tested. Hopefully we'll find where it's coming from.
