    Default Fat Coolant Leak!

    Have a coolant leak, a big one at that, on my VP motor.

    Ignore the small splash on the right of the first photo, i found where that leak was coming from, but as for that huge pool sitting there, i have no idea! found it there this morning and I'm 99% sure its not from he same leak which is causing the small splash on the right, because i park it in the same spot.

    If you wanted to know anyway the small spot on the right is leaking from the bottom hose, just musnt be tight enough or might need some new pipe.

    Anyone got any ideas what it might be?

    i tried to get a few angles so you might be able to see where it would come from.

    thanks

    does it over heat? how often do you have to fill it up?
    i am thinking water pump from where that water is sitting,could even be the bottles on the radiator have a good look and listen you should be able to find it mate jack it up and run it.
