Default Help about Coolant

Ok. my car is parked outside the house when I am adjusting my lights, when I am done I drove the car around the block for a test drive and when I got back there is a huge amount of coolant on the road where I parked the car before.

I checked the radiator for leaks but the coolant there is full and I check all the connections and everything is in order, upon close inspection I found where the leak might come from, its coming from underneath the trottle body.

The car is park right now at the driveway and there is no leak at the moment, any ideas what cause this to happened...

Doing a long drive tomorrow need to know if I can drive it.

Appreciate all the input.

leaking coolant to me is just bad period. If you can confirm that its drip drip then you can get away with it, for awhile. If its a hose leak, try check if its cracked, cut, blown, swollen, or hard. If you are not sure about where your leak is, I suggest you use honda antifreeze/coolant. The most awesome thing about it is that if there is a leak, it would leave a white/greenish stain where the leak is. It saved me lots of times and helped me keep my car leak free by locating it for me.
