Hello everyone I have a 1992 subaru legacy fwd 215770 miles automatic. This is my third car so I don't drive it much but I drove it to the store today and when came back to the car there was coolant everywhere. I haven't had a chance to really go through it yet but besides the lower radiator hose where else might it be leaking from. The leak is defiantly underneath the car I'm just not sure where. So if anyone might have suggestions as to where I should look that would be great.

Lineup of the usual suspects -

 

Radiator - will trickle to the lowest point before dripping.

Lower rad hose, or the little tube behind the thermostat housing will burst and gush everywhere.

Heater core hoses on the drivers side rear of the motor. Check both connection points.

Coolant manifold o rings - crossover pipe beneath the intake manifold will leak and puddle on the block before dripping.

 

Crawl around with a good flashlight and usually you'll trace the leak.
