Can anyone tell me how to identify a bad coolant seal, I think I have one I just want to be sure? I have White smoke coming out of my exhaust and a never ending stream of air in my coolant? Thanks for the help in advance. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...R#>/violin.gif

sounds like you hit the nail on the head.. if you want to double check you can get a coolant system pressure tester

Where can I get one of those

pressure tester



You can get one at this place for around $65 or you can probably get one at most auto parts stores

alright, I went out to my car at noon, I found a large puddle of antifreeze under it. Can someone tell me if the coolant seals are just internal. If it is then all I have to do is find the mystery leak thats plagued me for the last 24 hours. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/blink.png I also think that it might be the radiator, I had some work done to my car and some ******* smashed my brand new hammer and then tried to pretend that he didnt know about it( the only bad thing about the radiator is that its painted gloss black, I don't know what genius thought that up).
