My coolant keeps leaking and it isn't comming from the radiator. It's spitting out coolant from the cap black skinny tube or something like that. I don't know how to make it stop. What are your recomendations?

does your car overheat at all? does it gurgle in the dashboard? does anything at all feel strange... slow... or sluggish...
when was the last time your water pump, radiator cap, thermostat was changed?

My car keeps making a wierd noise. I think there's a leak somewhere but it somehow doesn't leak when I park it. It was drivin fine again when I put more coolant into the radiator but it doesn't always stay like that. I always have to keep putting coolant in there.

ok i really need to you answer the questions i posted...
does it overheat
does it miss?
does it stutter at all?
when was the last time your car was serviced?
what does the noise sound like? is it coming from anywhere in particular from the engine? front, back, side, bottom or top?

lift your oil cap what colour is the oil?

thanks

it could be that the one of the pipes leading to or from the radiator is loose or bad. but if i were you i would get it looked at by a pro just so you dont have to get a new engine some day

^^ Yep. It's the overflow pipe that keeps spitting it out. But right now, I'm pretty piss off. My car was in an incident and the front passenger bumber is hit, the right fender is still intact but the bottom bumber from the side lights are damage. The car starts right now but it dies when I press on the gas. I saw that the black hose that connects to the intercooler is torn. I'm hella piss off. That dude that hit me didn't had insurance too and I didn't do uninsure motorist insurance so my insurance won't pay for it. I"M PISSED OFF but I just found an 86 Toyota Supra Turbo PARTS CAR. THIS IS WHERE I REALLY NEED YOU GUYS HELP. WILL AN 86 TOYOTA SUPRA TURBO PARTS CAR FIT AN 88 TOYOTA SUPRA TURBO?

I just need the head lights, front bumper, front hood, side lights and the HOSE that connects to my turbo and intercooler. (that's what my cousin says...but i dunno.) PLEASE HELP ME OUT!

^^ Thankyou so MUCH! I'm probably gonna take that parts car and use it's parts to fix my car back up. Do you guys think buying an 86 Supra Turbo parts car with everything but missing some interior parts and engine not running for $500.00??? If so, I think I'll take it!
