hondo Posted October 2, 2005 Share Posted October 2, 2005 I have a '92 loyale fuel-injected 1.8. I replaced my drive belts this morning, and noticed that there was a descent amount of oil sitting around the base/crossmember area that the radiator is sitting on. Seems strange. I am aware of a small oil pan leak that I have, but it doesn't make sense that the miniscule amount of oil that IS leaking would make it all the way up there.

nipper Posted October 2, 2005 Share Posted October 2, 2005 DO you have an automatic? it could be a leaking tranny fluid coolant line. Bowerwash the area and see where its coming from. nipper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hondo Posted October 3, 2005 Author Share Posted October 3, 2005 DO you have an automatic? it could be a leaking tranny fluid coolant line. Bowerwash the area and see where its coming from. No, manual. What is in that group of lines that runs at the base of the radiator, then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nipper Posted October 3, 2005 Share Posted October 3, 2005 Group? Only thing that should be there that i can think of is the two radiator hoses, ans the AC lines. Unless you have a pinhole radiator leak im stumped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TROGDOR! Posted October 3, 2005 Share Posted October 3, 2005 Leaky power steering lines could be dumping ATF down there. Either that or you could have a massive oil leak at the front of the engine, from the front main seal or cam seals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KStretch55 Posted October 5, 2005 Share Posted October 5, 2005 ATF from the power steering was my guess too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
