Hi guys I'm new to the forum because I've been having many problems with my 94 Honda Accord ex but just since Sunday I've been leaving puddles of antifreeze everywhere I go and the car leaked so much it started overheating last night so I shut it down as quickly as I could... it's on top of the motor between the intake manifold and the head right where the thermostat goes onto the motor from the radiator but the leak seems to come from right above that and in huge amounts please help I know a lot about cars but not thesee chineese cars
Right where the gold sencor on the bottom of the pic
I took a pic and tried to post it with this post and if it comes up its on the bottom of the pic on that gold and black sensor where it looks to be coming from please help!
Re: Leaking radiator fluid between head and intake
The small round cylinder that is below the metal pipes near the left center bottom of the pic is the VTEC solenoid. There is no coolant in there, only oil. The larger cylinder topped with the black triangular plastic piece with the grey connector is the EGR solenoid, again no coolant there either.
Clean the area off with simple green/409 and a hose. Soak up the excess water and then start the engine and observe any leaks. It may simply be a hose that has a nick in it and it sprays coolant onto the VTEC solenoid. If there was coolant coming out of your VTEC or EGR solenoids the car would not run for very long.
