Let the car run and watch the hoses for any leaks..You may have to rev it to get the right pressure to cause the leak.. If no leak im sorry to say that you have a good chance of having a cracked head..As far as the knock at start up..Check the oil pressure and level..Dont trust most shops with these cars..Almost everyone i talk to about mine they tell me"Im sorry"..You will be doing alot of work yourself if you want it done right..Go check out celicasupra.com There are some very savy and helpfull guys and gals there..Just use the search first before you ask something.. see ya there..
