88XJ, BA10/5 tranny, 252K miles.
Got home from a mountain bike ride and noticed a fast drip underneath my XJ that appeared to be coming from the gap between the bell housing and engine block. I poked my finger in the spilled liquid; it was cool to the touch, slick, and didn't have a strong discernible oder. I stuck a drip pan underneath the vehicle for the evening. I figured that my internal slave cylinder may have given up the ghost. However, upon checking the pan this morning, I found that approximately 1/4 cup of antifreeze (classic green color) had collected in the pan.
Does anyone have a clue where this might be coming from? Looking in the engine bay, that are no apparent leaks that might cause a drip from around the clutch housing. But, my coolant bottle was empty. No signs of moisture inside the vehicle like a leaking heater core, and the engine has been running at normal temps.
