Ey all,
My car just started leaking water tonight, what i need to know is the name of the part thats leaking.
I own a 1988 3sge celica, the part that is leaking can be found: if you follow the hose on the top of the radiator back to the engine, where it connects on, there is about 5 wires going onto a metal tube. The leak is from the sensor right next to the radiator hose inlet. Can anyone tell me what that part it? and how to fix it. I will post a picture of it asap.
Thanx for any help in advance.
Cheers
