Finally got some time yesterday to track down my coolant leak. Blew a frieze plug on the front of the motor.
 Anybody have any ideas as to WHY? Kalina put them in, maybe I should go after him. I suppose his "not garunteed against leaks" will cover him there.  This car is really starting to piss me off.

Thanks guys, I might look into one of those rubber plugs. Is that something autozone would have? I'm gonna try and get the turbo and other crap in the way pulled this week, so I can get a better look at what's going on.
BTW Marcus - as near as I could tell, the plug was completely gone. Water was literally pouring out the side of the block. God, I hope I didn't crack the damn block.  I'll update as I find out more. edit: appears that Advance has the rubber plugs in stock. 2.99 each. Rob -------------------- The fastest car I own is a minivan....
