Hello:

I have a coolant leak which looks like it is coming from the right side along the back of the rear tire. I checked all the hoses and front of the radiator which seems to be fine. Do you think it is gasket of teh intake manifold gasket? If it is how hard is it to relplace it? Thanks, DJ

Its common for those gaskets to leak I have replaced tons of them they even redesigned the gasket because so many leaked. To replace it you have to support the engine with a floor jack remove the upper engine and transmission mounts. ALso unbolt the power steering pump and move it aside. Then tilt the engine forward and you will be working from the top and bottom of it. Also makes sure thats where its leaking dont forget to drain the coolant before starting and make sure the gasket you replace it with is a two piece one that is the updated gasket.
