Hi I have a v reg p38 with a V8 petrol engine. Its the later bosch engine.
A coolant leak has appeared and has gotten worse quite quickly. It is at the rear of the engine but I cannot pinpoint it. To give an idea of location it is running down the nearside. Down the fuel pipe and down the side of the engine/Bell housing. It's a steady flow and it drips a reasonable amount of coolant.
When the engine is revved the coolant becomes frothy.
So its running down the fuel pipe which goes over the gear box and into fuel tank. Also down the side of the engine directly where the gearbox bolts to the engine. I can' s where its coming from. I've used a mirror and light. I've even take the nsf wheel arch out but can't see anything.
Any ideas would be appreciated.
Many thanks
James
