Antifreeze leak...

[You_DTF?]

So i been pouring antifreeze for the past few days and dont know from where. My fan hasn't worked for about 3 and a half months but yet i have never had a problem with it over heating or leaking antifreeze. Today i removed my radiator and plugged all wholes filled with water and no leaks. The only conclusion i can come to would be
A. The radiator cap (stock from 1990 never builds pressure, so maybe since fan doesnt work it spills out of cap..)

B. A hose somewhere... yet i have checked them all and none seem to be leaking. Any help?

You should probably replace your cap with a OEM one anyway.

If its not leaking you may be burning it off....or its spraying outta your overflow cuz your headgasket is done.

water pump? check for split lines? cause mine wouldnt start leaking until after 20-30 mi of driving

Its not getting my overflow wet at all. Its on my front engine mount, and all over radiator.

Replace upper radiator hose and get a new clamp for the engine side and the rad side.

It may be heating up and spraying out under pressure...I had that problem when i bought my old h22 hatch...the hose was old and worn out.

I will do. Im prob gonna get all new rad hoses, and new cap just to be safe.

u need to do a real pressure test on the system before taking any other action.

unless you like replacing parts that are not needed and waste money.. I will take some money if you want to waste it

Well im just saying it a car from 90 so the hose are pretty old and prob need to be replaced anyways.

its most likely not your water pump it sounds like the radiator . you would know if it was the upper radiator hose .
