Hi Everyone,
My 98 GL has is leaking coolant through a visible hole in a metal pipe underneath the passenger side and this pipe runs parallel and above to the cross member. We stuck some epoxy to patch it up, but I haven't tried to run it yet with this repair job too see if will hold.
The metal pipe connects to a rubber hose, and I almost want to just cut the bad portion off and get a new hose and reconnect it. I'm not sure if we can even do that because as with most problems having enough clearance to fix what's gone wrong is always a major pain.
Any ideas whether this is part of the radiator or just some weird metal connecting piece? Has anyone seen anything like this in their Contour?
Thanks,
Tara
