Hi all
Have just bought a trooper commercial 3.0l 2003, having changed the throttle body and all well it has decided to develop a coolant leak, the header tank keeps emptying itself there is no water going in the oil, wherever the leak is the fan is picking it up and misting the drivers side of the engine which has turned white, had a look tonite but theres no obvious leak which I could see the fan picking up, just wondered if anyone has experienced this problem? Thanks

could be but there is a gold pipe just under the aircon compressor that is a known place for leaking where it goes in to the head, it seals on an o ring and over time it goes hard then leaks and looks like the pump has gone so check this first
