In the last few months my mj has been loosing water consistantly with no leaks from the hoses. The only place i can see coolant leaking is from the bellhousing/back of the motor. The funny thing is it does not run hot at all, and i havent noticed any power loss.
im pretty sure the headgasket is bad. I've heard that when headgaskets go bad, the compression from the cylinders goes into the cooling system pressurizing it. My coolant pressure bottle blew up the other day, so im guessing that is another indicator of the head gasket.
Its an 88 mj with 167k. I'd just like some reassurance before i go tearing into it. thanks.
