message flashed "engine failure" can't remember if it said anything else, don't think so it just keep flashing "engine failure", I was within a mile of home and brought it straight home. After a week of just letting it sit, I started it and let it just run about 15 minutes in driveway, the light never came on. I moved it into the garage and saw that the area was wet, it appears the anti freeze is leaking out.

Why would anti-freeze be leaking out, I think at a pretty slow drip/leak.
