99 Accord V6 EX coolant system question
Just joined, might as well find out about another vehicle of mine.
Have this 99 Accord, has the 3.0V6, great engine, love it. last summer smelled a hint of antifreeze now and then. Never really a difference in levels when I check it. Finally thermostat stuck. Fixed it,
Now the Question....
So, its been a few weeks and all seemed good until yesterday when I pulled in my drive after work. I smelled antifreeze stronger than previous, alarmed I popped the hood and looked around. I found a small hose, near 1/4" which connects to the throttle body right below the air intake. had fresh antifreeze around the connection from the hose to the metal line.
Maybe just needs a new clamp, maybe something building up more pressure than designed. Planning on throwing on a new clamp, just want more info...
I don't even have a clue what this cooling system line does. Can someone give me some insight on this? thanks
