Re: Leaking and dirty coolant. Need help asap.

Thanks for replying.

Im willing to put some money into the car, dont get me wrong. At the moment I just cant afford someply like a lower intake repair.

I do have the V6 3.1 3100 series engine. I went out to the car today and see what I could find out and the antifreeze is basically sludge, I read this is typical of DexCool so this may very well be the problem right there.


I figure ill flush it out, replace the coolan and order a water pump, Then when it gets here Ill go through the process of that. I didnt feel an actual leek but its very nasty near the water pump, wherease my entire engine is pretty damn clean. I find this stuff simple enough to do myself so here to hoping its not the lower intake.


If thats the case, would it be safe to drive with a cracked intake until i scrape up the funds? I dont drive heavy 20 miles a day to school and back.

Anyways thanks again!
