  • Steaming car.

    Alright so usually I have a 45 mile drive to work and today the car just started steaming as soon as I got to work and there is alot of moisture everywhere, I know it's vague but I just wanted to post up and see what could be going on. Didnt get time to verrify if it was water or anti freeze. But it is lookin like water
    Wait, Is that a V6 or V8?

      Yeah just looked and it's like a oily water, not coolant. What did you do? Safe to drive?

            By steamy everywhere are you meaning inside the car? If yes, it would be a heater core. Otherwise, if it's coming from under the hood, it's probably a hose somewhere.

              The throttle body after the the spacer loosened up a bit, and coolant was dropping down on the pulleys and such spitting it every where and burning and such, one of the bolts that twist into the cast or whatever it is on the UIM is a bit screwed up, i want to swap over to just nut and bolt. what they have right now is just disappointing
