coolant leak in ford windstar
15

Asked by Tylor Nov 11, 2010 at 02:34 PM about the 1996 Ford Windstar

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

i have quite a fast coolant leak when the engine is running, it is on the left hand side of the engine and is running down behind the belt pullies, it is dripping down and causing alot of smoke and steam once the engine heats up. i hace the 3.8l and it is in a 96. i was just wondering if any connections were more prone to leaking or any suggestions on how to find the leak. any help would be appreciated!

sounds like your water pump is gone,as for the steam blown head gasket.
