1995 Ford Contour

cylinder and she has taken it to a garage that replaced all the radiator hoses. Last night I put the car on blocks and it appears the leak is coming from a pan that is on the transaxle. I took the air cleaner off and inspected the top of the transaxle and it appears to be clean. My question is does the transaxle have a cooling device that would have antifreeze running to it? Also does anyone have any idea what may be leaking?

I've replaced ALL the heater hoses on my 96 2 litre Zetec. It's not a fun or easy job. If I remember, there's a hose on the thermostat housing that necks down from 3/4 to 5/8 (just guessing the sizes) that isn't available anywhere (at least not here in Houston) but the Ford dealer. If the garage tried using a "universal" fit, that could be the problem. Also, the thermostat uses an o-ring to seal. If that's a bit nicked or was re-used that could be a problem too. It's located at the back of the head just above the trans. I think I spent almost 200 bucks on the hoses from Ford but no leaks!
