It will drip on start up then stop, you can't really see where it's coming from being buried under the throttle and I'm asking if anyone knows what it might be,whats under there before I start taking things apart, thanks.

There are coolant passages that run through the throttle body and upper intake. Most the time you end up having the replace the upper intake manifold. While your there you should also do the lower intake gaskets. If the coolant leaks into the intake manifold, you could hydrolock the engine. Since we volunteer our time and knowledge, we ask for you to please follow up when a problem is resolved. dr.donut User Nov 18, 2014, 10:18 AM Post #3 of 3 (1855 views) Re: coolant leak 02 buick Sign In Thank you, now I have a better idea what to expect.   Automotive Repair     Auto Body Repair and Refinishing     Heating or AC Issues     Electrical and Wiring     Brake Systems     Car Stereo Repair Advice     General Discussions     Car Making Funny Noises     Engine Fault Codes     Engine Troubles     Exhaust Systems     Steering and Suspension     Transmission Troubles     Tricks of the Trade Automotive World     General Discussions     Antique Car Talk     Car Shows and Events     The Bargin Bin     Motor Vehicle Inspection     Car Care Tips     Traffic Tickets     Gasoline, Motor Oils, Concept Cars and Engines     Auto Insurance, Financing, Leases, Warranties Truck Repair     General Discussions     Truck Engine Repair     Truck Suspension Repair Motorcycle Repair     General Discussions     Motorcycle Engine Repair CarJunky     Open Posting     Board FAQ's     New Board Suggestions
