      haha well i checked again, and its the hose running from the coolant res. to the waterpump. its leaking right where the hose connects to the waterpump....i assume i have to just get a new hose? cause it leaks about 1-2 drops every 5-10 seconds

        Exact same hose as I had a problem with. I just tightened the clamp.

          i already did, and it seems like its just having a really really slow leak? i dont get it. i even moved the clamp up a little on the hose (granted coolant split out even more) and that didnt do the trick either...

          any other suggestions?

              they sell like goo/grease for coolant lines to help seal them up on the hard sides

                Also check to make sure the neck that the hose is seated on isn't nicked; if there is a dep gouge, it can cause a leak.

                                Just mowed my lawn and now just kickin back on the couch on my first day off in a week.

                                Last night I yanked my rear seat and gutted some of the foam out for the Luke box as well as mounted the box properly.

                                Now I'm trying to decide what to do next with the car, 5spd swap is really at the top of the list but I dunno lol
