Please Help! 97 1.8t Leaking Coolant On The Side Of The Drain Plug?
I just drained and flushed my radiator and cooling system yesterday, and now that I drained out the water and flush cleaner, it is now leaking fresh coolant on the tire side of the radiator drain ****... There is a small hole here that eludes me. How do I fix this? I have college finals today and this is my only working car at the moment!
The hole beside the drain plug (on the tire side) is for draining the radiator. Judging by the way you're talking, I'm assuming you completely removed the drain plug to drain your radiator. You're supposed to loosen the drain plug until the fluid comes out of the hole beside the drain plug. Not completely remove the drain plug. Check to make sure the drain plug is tightened. If that doesn't do it, it's possible that there is a rubber o-ring or some type of seal that goes with that drain plug that might be missing or not seated properly.
