1995 850NA. 200,000miles. On the driver's side of the engine, below the distributer, is a metal tube that connects to a hose that leads to the heater core...I always find anti-freeze right below that metal tube. So...it's (1) the hose connection- which I changed (2) the metal tube leading into the engine (3) maybe (oh, I hope not) a head gasket leak from above that tube- just hard to see, or (4)...I haven't a clue!!! When the engine is hot, I smell anti freeze. When you turn on the fan, anti-freeze. There is NO leak in the cabin from the heater core. Cabin interior is dry.
So...ideas? I changed the heater core last summer.
