    Cool

    Soup time, is it??? leeks.....loool.... clean the engine bay up with some degreaser, so you can see whats happening...then just run her and watch.......can even go to an extreme & put food coloring the water ...makes it easier to see........try tightening all the hose-clamps up.............not sure on prices of injectors.........

    Injectors cost nothing to replace. On the leak, can you see the water under the car, if not could be a head gasket or a head problem, quite common on Vl's

    jacked car up and the water is running from one of the hoses along the very bottom one and dripping ooff there and yeh i can see a little puddle under the car.But there is no oil in radiator it's clean as a whistle which can only be a good thing lol.


    P.S il jack it up again tomorow and take a pic but i rekon it's either a small split in the hose or like rat said maybe a clamp loose

    cost us $90 for two in sydney, then had to get someone to put em on...thats what happens when women attempt to do things themselves, got a friendly mechanic tho...he fixes everything at next to nothing, that is a male trick..a case of beer does the job well

    m8, know exactly how you feel.

    my1stvl, it sounds like a split hose, replace that hose and see if that fixes your leak, if not, then i would say its the radiator thats cracked due to corrosion etc etc
