Coolant Leak

Hey guys, i'm actually having a coolant leak with my 1997 2.2 CL but it's not from my main radiator hoses. It's one of the tiny little tubes in the back. Hope you guys can help; and i know the picture is a little big too

Uve done the hard part which is finding the leak...Just replace the hose...its likely the rubber hose is worn and cracked...mine had this problem. after the hose is replaced replace what fluid is lost and idle the car with the radiator cap off to bleed the air out. please dont take the cap off while the engine is hot though, wait for it to cool.

i hate those stupid coolant lines threw the T.B they heat that bithch up not cool her down.

yes, replace the hose and make sure clamp isnt bad.

or, block off the lines running threw the T.B. , route the line to be sepeate. it wont hurt your car.

pro's= cooler T.B. on hot days, cleaner looking engine bay
con's= in winter it takes a little longer to atomize fuel.
