Re: leaking coolant out my header
anything that could have leaked coolant into the cylinder. run a compression test.

If its leaking coolant right into your header, you either have a cracked head, real bad headgasket (or put one on wrong), or have you had a port and polish done? sometimes if they go too big, theyll grind a tiny little hole right into your waterjacket. do a leakdown test or compression. and pressurize the cooling syst. with a gauge and watch if it drops.
