OK. First the specs...
1990 Jeep Cherokee
Automatic
Stock Everything
I have noticed a small puddle of coolant in the mornings... just a slow drip. I can't figure out where it is coming from. When I looked under the engine, it doesn't look like it is coming from the front of the engine compartment (water pump, radiator etc)... but more on the side near the exhaust manifold. I can't see too much under there, but am pretty sure it is leaking from that general direction.
When I am driving, or running the car it doesn't seem to leak... only when it is sitting there. I am thinking it may have something to do with the engine cooling down after reaching temp. The metal contracting or something. Could this be a freeze plug issue? If anyone can shed any light on this, I would greatly appreciate it.
thanks.
