my jeep is at the shop getting a few things done...

Long long story short...last week they coolant underneath my jeep. I had just done a thermostat and new hose, so they thought that was just left over spilled coolant

Brought it back today for them to finish and they said there is coolant all over the underside of my jeep

It has had a small leak from the time we did the tstat....but we found a crack in the hose..so we put a new one on

now its all over the place

any ideas?

i got 3 guess...radiator, water pump or freeze plugs

they said its over my steering so its coming from up front

Gee oh Dee

Any good shop should have a cooling system pressure tester. Its basically a bicycle pump with a gauge.

If they don't have one, see if a parts store will rent you one.

i just called and they will pressure test it for me

pray its a water pump...not the radiator

Gee oh Dee

Lol, radiator is easier, water pump is cheaper.

lol
cheaper fix is better right now...but its a jeep

Gee oh Dee

If your paying someone else to do it, they may end up being the same price.

its there getting some work done...so they are going to track down the leak

the repairs will be done at my work...shop repairs are too much for this broke dutch boy
