A couple of weeks ago I replaced the heater and radiator hoses on my '94 Camry V6. A few days ago I noticed some drops of coolant on the garage floor.
At first I assumed I must not have gotten one of the hose connections sealed. So, I checked them carefully -- they are not leaking. Also, the leak is coming from a location that eliminates the hose connections as the source.
The source is buried under so much stuff I can't see exactly where the leak originates, but the source seems to be about 6 to 10 inches below the forward edge of the intake manifold - where it meets the engine. (This is rear of where the heater hoses connect to the engine/thermostat.) I can't understand how coolant can be leaking from this location. Also, the coincidence of this new leak appearing shortly after my flushing the system and replacing the hoses is very strange indeed.
Does anybody have any ideas for the source of the leak and how a drain & flush could have caused this new leak to start. I did replace the radiator cap at the same time, but it's a Toyota cap for this model car/engine, and the pressure should be the same, so I wouldn't think it had anything to do with this leak.
