- '98 xlt
I drive a 98 xlt, last night while stopped at a red light alot of steam was coming out of the grill and pass side of the hood. I looked under the hood and with the little light that i had i think i found where it was leaking from. I dont know what is it called but right next to the washer fluid and radiator fluid box its about 9 inches to the right of it and its to the left of the spark plugs. There is a bell kinda thing with a plug thats on top and on the bottom of it theres a black piece that comes straight down and has a metal rod going through it. Thats where i notcied what it looked and smelled like to be radiator fluid dripping off of it down to the exhaust manifold making it have steam everywhere. Now is this some kind overflow system where it drains it out? Because a couple days ago i added fluid to the box because it was low. Then this morning i found a the fluid on the drive way. I havent driven it since last night. Any help in what this is and how it can be fixed will be much appreciated. thnks
