There is a leak in our water line we think. At first we thought it was a rad line, but i dont think it is. We poured water through where the rad cap is, and it comes out to a line that is not connected to anything. I took out an elbow joint peice that is rubber and we think the water line is rusted out because there is nothing that is anywhere to be seen that could be attatched at the other end. Does this sound possible? Need some feedback on what to do from here

if it is on the fire wall it is the heater core drainage tube and that is to tell u that ur heater core is leaking. change it before it leaks into ur car. I had this happen to me because chevy uses cheap heater core (mine was plastic elbows) and the replacement was aluminum and works great. Be careful when changing it under the dash because i broke a peace of plastic and now i have no cover. Hope this helps!
