I have a 96 2.8qm and its been sitting for about 2 weeks now, I went out and started it yesterday and my dash light came on saying my coolant was low. When the car was parked it was full and now the tank is empty. I start it every once in a while maybe every two days or so. At first my heart dropped and thought head gasket lol but Idk if it could drain that fast from just starting it every once in a while. I had it inspected by a shop and they said that my front differential was leeking, so I checked it out and the fluid is a thin green liquid, and its drip after drip. I was told differential fluid is THICK. Anyone got any ideas?

 

Thin green liquid is your power steering fluid. Probabilty exists of your steering rack might be leaking.


Good Luck...

 

The owner before me was a tard and used normal antifreeze in the system. It was the hose running from the back of the engine into the heater core

 

Flush the cooling system and replace with either,
G-12 or universal yellow antifreeze.
