Hey, Im new around here, and I have a 01' ZX3 DOHC. Im sorry I started up here on such crappy terms. =\
Last night whilest I was 93 miles away from home. I floored it in 1st and slamed 2nd, then after about 3 minutes I smelled coolant. Got to a resteraunt, then saw it leaking coolant. Joy.
Ate came back out went to the gas station about 30 ft away and got some water filled the system back up, look under the car to see a stream on water... Joy. We finally found where it was coming from, are where the thermo-housing is and the house. Seems to leak the most when under pressure or the cap is off to the reservoir.
So we have to get it home. We drive, make 7 stops about 10-20 miles apart from each other filled up the system. But each time we stopped I had to put less water in it... But again, the leaking seemed to slow down the longer we drove... Weird.
Dare I even want to know just how much of a ßitc* it is to replace, and is timing ran on chain?
