it has about 155k miles on it
i got it about 4 months ago
have papers on repairs since the car has been owned
A/C still works from factory
about 2 months ago i bypass the heater core, as it leaked and i live in
Texas, so i
do not need it
for the last 2 days, it has been leaking at the bottom of the radiator,
it gathers coolant at the bottom pan, then flows out to the bottom
plastic sheild.
i have been told that if the radiator leaks, then it would be a flow,
but the leak is off and on
i would run it for a while (10 mins) and no leak, but then i would run
it for 5 mins and a leak
i run the a/c and i think that makes it leak sooner, but i know for
sure when the engine gets hot, the pressure in the radiator causes the
leak.
The engine space is VERY little, so i can not look under the radiator
unless i remove the bumper, so i can not see if any hoses are
cut/leaking.
i can not see any hoses where it is leaking (right side, near the
belts)
I come to this groups, hoping that i can find any help, as i am a
student, and can not afford to go to the shops, unless i need to
Thank you
