Coolant leak

Have not bought it yet, the guy says about half a jug of coolant a year.

This is what he told me, There is a small coolant leak into the AC blower motor, I put 1/2 a jug of coolant in it in the last year. All you have to do is run the AC fan every once in a while to burn up the coolant. What happened is, a couple years ago, the AC stopped working, and when the blower motor was taken out, it was loaded down with coolant. Obviously if enough coolant builds up over time, the fan wont be able to turn and the motor and resistors burn out. So I replaced the blower motor and resistor and put stop leak in the coolant, which plugged the leak for the most part. Now you just have to run the fan every once in a while, and put some coolant in, which isn't much.

I would assume that the guy knows the difference between green antifreeze coolant and plain water.

I e-mailed him and asked him if the liquid was green or clear and told him your reply, I don't buy a word of that. First off, coolant rarely migrates all the way to the blower motor because the heater core is on the other side of the evaporator and the evaporator has a drain system. It just doesn't add up. I would suspect it more to be condensation build up from a plugged drain and not coolant in that area. Now I will see what he says, what if the evaporator drain holes were plugged, would coolant that was leaking from the heater core than wind up in the AC blower motor?

So than there is ABSOLUTELY POSITIVELY no way for coolant to wind up in the ac blower motor?

Than I will have to pass on the car and it is too bad as Taurus is one of my favorite cars. Thanks for your help.

He says it is antifreeze and you are a professional mechanic with 40 years experience and you say it is impossible for the antifreeze to wind up in the blower box so I have to believe you.

This is what he JUST sent me, I know its coolant because when I noticed the coolant going down, I put stop leak in the reservoir, which turned the coolant orange. When the blower motor was taken out, it was the same orange fluid that came out.

But he said the fluid in the blower box was the same color as the coolant after putting stop leak in it that turned it orange so I have no idea what could have been in the blower box.
