Default Carpet is SOAKED with antifreeze, but i just put a brand new heater core in today..help me please

yeah like the title says, my carpet is soaking wet with antifreeze. when that happens it usually means a leaky heater core, but i just put a BRAND NEW heater core in today, so it cant be that, it must be osmething else, but when i was putting it in, i didnt see anymore water hoses inside the actual car, i need some serious help here, this is puzzling me. does anyone know of anymore hoses that could possibly be leaking? this frustrates me so much.

make sure all your connections are good, your heater core may have been installed by morons...my suggestion is to just look around and try to find the leak.

good luck

My best guess would also be a loose connection somewhere, not the heatercore itself.

He put it in himself, no offense. Do you have a manual? I would try looking at the old one and seeing if you might have missed something.
