Is there a few common locations to find a coolant leak on a 98' SOHC ? I have a leak that I haven't been able to trace up to the source. It drips down to the road on the passenger side towards the front of the engine. It hits the cross member, and it hits the oil pan in the front so that it rolls back and drips from the back of the oil pan too. Once it leaks enough, it seems to stop when the coolant level goes below the leak.
BTW Koda, if you read this you were absolutely right. That "Timing Chain Noise" I was wondering about and started a thread on was in fact the coolant level too low and sloshing around on start up. When I filled the radiator up the start up noise stopped. But of course now I leak all my fluid out until I the coolant level passes the leak point.
