Small coolant leak.

***dz4swamper*** · #1 (**permalink**) 12-07-2011, 10:22 AM

I have a small coolant leak, almost a weeping when the block is cold above the #7 cylinder at the rocker carrier/head seam. Any ideas where and why its doing this? Possible fixes?

IF the leak really is in that location, I am thinking head gasket. If it is not there,I would look at the EGR to oil cooler hose connection.

If it is the head gasket, wouldn't the leak be lower then the rocker carrier? For reference, it looks like it's coming from right below the #7 GP buss bar connection. How likely is it that the GP cup is cracked? That's the only place where coolant flows in that area if I'm remembering correctly.
