Default 1995 Saturn SL2 - antifreeze leak troubleshooting and brake bleeding??

1995 sl2 - antifreeze leak - where is it?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

hiyas.

so... a 1995 saturn sl2... it's leaking antifreeze... I'm trying to
figure out from where.

Now, I have it up on some oil changing ramps... the antifreeze is
dripping pretty good from somewhere underneath the throttle body/air
intake and between the engine and the firewall... or maybe out of the
engine, I can't get back there to see.

There looks to be the two heater hoses going through the firewall in
that area...

At any rate, it is dribbling on the back of the engine, then on top of
the exhuast pipe... I only mention this to give an idea of the area I
am referring to.

Any ideas? Things to check... ways to check?

thanks.

1995 SL2 - bleeding the brakes ?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hi.

In my so far epic quest to determine where exactly the antifreeze is
coming from on a 1995 saturn sl2, I went to remove the air duct/pipe
that goes from the air filter box to the air intake/throttle body...
and subsequently popped the reservoir for the brake fluid on the master
cylinder off, so brake fluid went everywhere. Yay.

So I got that part back on good... the reservoir for the brake fluid,
but I'm guessing it would be wise to bleed the brakes now. I have bled
the brakes on many other types of GM vehicles before, a '65 chevy
truck, a 1985 chevy s-10 truck, a '85 oldsmobile, etc.. I just thought
I'd check to see if there was anything special to look out for on this
electronic gizmo mobile.

thanks to all...

Thanks for any help or advice... other than a large amount of
explosives to put it out of my misery.

-W
