But yesterday coolant began to leak onto my driveway, coolant was dripping from gearbox area bit further back from the bell housing. From what I've read it may be the heater core sh*t itself. Any feedback ? Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/90528-coolant-leak-fg-mk2-turbo-manual/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

DANGER WILL ROBINSON...footnote: I dont know if this is an issue with the fg's, but is known to happen on the ba's...especially taxi's Edited 31/05/15 10:15 AM by FoRalph Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/90528-coolant-leak-fg-mk2-turbo-manual/#findComment-1547027 Share on other sites More sharing options...
