Ok so i just put a new turbo on my car and also removed my ac components at the same time. I unhooked the water lines to the heater core so i could get the ac compressor out without removing my in take and having to buy new gaskets. Anyways, once i got it back together and ran it for a while i started to hear a leaking sound like a bubbly leak in the cabin around the pedals. I looked on both sides of the firewall and didn't see anything wet and there are no leaks under my car so i drove it for awhile longer hoping it would go away but it persisted. So today i went out and lifted my floor mat and my floor is soaked in coolant. Im going to make a pretty good guess that my heater core is leaking so what I'm wondering is what would u guys do. Ad some form of stop leak but i know that it has been known to clog up coolant passages in the head or replace the heater core for $110? I'm on a pretty good budget but i could do the work myself so that would save me labor charges. No one close by has an eclipse i can talk to about this so I'm looking for a little advise on this one.
