Need to find where its leaking
Hello
My car is leaking coolant, its not making a puddle on the ground, not one drop but i was under the car and noticed that coolant started to form on the crossmember and also on the y-pipe which explains that it evaporates before hitting the ground. I suspect it is coming from the intake mainifold but not certain, i did see some coolant up top as well. I just wanted to make sure its not something else and wanted to see if you guys had any input.The reservoir keeps getting empty and im getting sick of refilling it.
Also if it is the intake manifold, ive never replaced that gasket before and i heard having the TPI setup makes it a PITA. Any help would be appriciated
Thanks.

Re: Need to find where its leaking
Autozone has a loan-a-tool program. You leave a deposit for the tool, and you get your money back when you return the tool in one piece. Rent the cooling system pressure tester. Pump the system up to 16lbs and you will be able to see where the leak is.
