Specs
1989 XJ 4.0, AW4 212K miles
So, the other night after finishing up some other work on the XJ, I was letting it run in the driveway. Low and behold, there's coolant leaking out from the front of the engine. Get out the flash light and looks like it's coming from above the freeze plug on the left front side of the engine block. I'm hoping that it's not the head gasket, but definately am not ruling that out.
Any guess on what else it could possibly be? So far, no oil in the coolant or coolant in the oil, though it's definately using up the overflow tank quickly! Just looking for any other places to check before hand.
EDIT: I doubt this matters, but the coolant system is converted to a 91+ open style system.
