My 1997 Camry loses coolant when the heater is used, but there is no sweet smell inside the passenger cabin. It does not lose coolant when the heater is not used. Is this a heater hose problem?

Dear Mike
Try and take a look under the hood on the passenger side against the firewall. There should be two hoses feeding into the heater core. There should also be a value which is operated when you turn on the heat. With the car running and at operating temperature have a assistant turn the heat on while you check for leaks at the above locations mentioned.
Goodluck :) Backyardmech
