I got out of my car today and I popped the hood (seemed a lil hot.. like 200* I'm a freak, lol) and anyway I heard something that kinda sounded like steam?! I looked closly and saw something drip on my Passenger side header.

I have BBK Shorties, w/ 02's and a ORY. It was leaking from somewhere above the header and hitting the bottom of the header it looked like. Any ideas what this could be? FWIW, I don't have any heat... I don't know if that has anything to do with it.

Thanks for the help.

Oil or coolant?

I have no idea as of yet.. Could it be a leak from the heater core or w/e?

If I had to guess it looked more like coolant. Didn't look like it was coming from the heads... off to the left.... I'll post a pic when I get home. Might drop it off at the mechanics tonight.

Good lord that car is pissing me off and I dont even own it

If it was oil you'd probably know it, steam sounds more like coolant, I just wanted to make sure it wasn't smoke from oil burning off the headers.

looks like a possible heater core leak

go under the car and see if you can spot coolant coming from this http://shbox.com/1/a_c_drain.jpg hole, if yes, you need a heater core

Thanks for the reply, I do not have heat and was figuring my heater core was clogged. I will check it out tomorrow, I will also have my mechanic look at it, as my brakes are out and the %$&^ers on ebay haven't gotten em to me yet. So I'm gonna drive the beater for the next couple days and I will have my mechanic look at it (He'd do it for free, he's a friend... he'd charge me to replace it tho)

Is it important that it's fixed quickly? Or will I be fine DD'in it for a month or so as is?
