: Posible antifreeze leak or something going on?

After driving my 1995 and I walk infront of the car I smell antifreeze, I have looked under the car all over the engine and can't find a leak? Nor do I see any drips? When you open the hood you can smell it alot more? Little things like this really drive me crazy. :mad:

I suspect seeing no leaks I most likely shouldn't be worried, but it hasn't been this way always so there has to be something going on? Any ideas?

I had to replace heater core couple years ago on my 1989 for the same reasons.

Going to try to get to this this weekend. This car is beginning to start having all sorts of problems :mad: hopefully this and a few other problems turn up to be minor.

Also could be a blown head gasket? Pull your dipstick and check to see if its milky? Also look in your coolent resviour? You might have smelt the coolent being burned off out of the exhaust? Who knows..
Just my 2 Cents..
