coolant leak from ?

[jrgaylor]

I noticed the other day that I had some antifreeze on my radius arm and upon inspection I saw that it was coming from the bottom of the A/C plenium in the engine compartment, so I thought I had a leak in my heater core, today I pulled out my heater core and it is fine, and the hoses going to the heater core are fine and had a good connection, so where did this coolant come from?

Heater control valves are notorious for leaking. If I'm thinking right only Gen 2's have them though.

Late 93 is when Ford started putting those heater control valves on. I have put one on our '92 to help the a/c out in our summer 110F heat.

Are you sure its coolant and not just water from running the A/C (assuming your running a/c already)..
