Anti freeze is pooling in the back two glow plug wells and eventually runs down on the starter to the ground. Any thought on where in the world this is coming from. My only thought is the head gasket but how does it get up hill to the glow plug well. Many thanks in advance.

 

is the issue on bothsides of the engine? as in the back two holes? and are you SURe it is antifreeze? if your hood seal is missing (like many of them are) rain will run down and sit back there.

 

DieselCrawler-It is definitely anti-freeze and the issue stated out with pooling in the last 2 glow plug wells closest to the fire wall on the passenger side of the truck. I put more fluid in the radiator and drove it and now it is pooling in the last three glow plug wells. I am starting to think that it might be the intake manifold gasket but wish I knew more about it. It appears from the pictures in the shop manual the there might be holes in the side of the heads which the intake manifold gasket blocks to seal off the flow of coolant. Whether this is true or not I do not know and not sure that it makes a lot of sense that it would be true. Thanks for answering.

 

the valley pan does block off collant passages. have you pressure tested it? could be as simple as a upper rad hose spraying coolant.
