Coolant Leakage engine back/top (2014/3.7)
hi all, requesting your help if anybody knows.
The coolant is dropping very fast from the top/back of the engine when I turn it ON. I can see the leakage goes through the clutch system to the floor but can not see very well were in the top/back engine it comes from due to narrow space.
any advice what could the issue be?
thank you!!

Here are All the Cooling Hoses!
Below in Pdf.
Heater Hoses, Heater Core and Hose to Upper Intake are all Suspect. Off the Top of My Head! I would Advise to Not Drive Until Repaired as You Could Fry Motor!
Also How To Find Water Leaks!
Also Upper Intake Vid to Give You Idea of What is Back There!

Hi 05stangkc!
Thanks a lot for the videos, have been of great help, mainly the 2nd one where they remove the manifold.
From what I see it seems to be one or both collant gaskets that connect intake manifold, also as you advise. I am in the middle of the work about to remove the Intake Manifoled but have some hard time with those plastic clips... as the guy from the video says it seems those were intentionally designed to give up. Even I alreay hit my finger with the screwdriver trying to remove them :Z
If the issue is a rubber gasket do you know if I could apply ABRO silicone? I might not get easy these gasketes were I live :/

I would Replace Gaskets!

Buy From Rockauto Or Use Part Numbers For Local Chase!

Also See PDF For Intake Torque Specs! Also Other Good Info!
