Default S.o.s help!!!



Hey guys. I'm caucasian. 6"1 Hair color: black Eyes: slanted brown.
I'm here with a leaking supra. I think its pmsing. But lets get the point here.

ok.

I'm leaking coolant/oil from the front part of my engine where the fan belt is.
I think it's the water pump but, IDK. The car doesn't overheat. FML.

Pickup a pressure testing kit or rent one from an auto parts store. It's basically a bike pump with a couple different shape caps which go on in place of the radiator cap.

When the engine is cold, take off the radiator cap and put on the proper adapter. Pump up to 18 or 20 psi and look for the leak.

Naturally this only helps locate coolant leaks, not oil.
