toronto,
hey guys, i went for a short drive today, noticed when i was like 2 minutes from home, some smoke coming from under the hood, i get home, pop the hood, and it starts coming out obviously.
its white in colour, and smells like what I imagine coolant to smell like, (sweet kind of)
anyways look under the car and theres coolant all over the damn place, overflow bottle is empty.
i did a compression test, becuase i thought headgasket at first, its still as good as its ever been at 155psi.
any ideas?? my next step is to check the water pump, but if anyone else has any dealings with this, that would be greatly appreciated.
oh ya, coolant is mostly on drivebelt end of engine, but there is still some coolant sitting on the transmission.
