Thanks J. That spot is rear passenger door, right at the bend before it flattens along the lower section of the door. I will take a pic in the light for you tomorrow.G,
For a rookie the patch off a donor door is the best and easiest way. My way, if I don't have a donor door, is a piece of 16-20 ga sheet, my leather shot bag and peens. Shoot me an email with the exact location on the door and I'll see if I have that piece in my stash..

If you pull (or cut) the lower hose on the cooler, all the coolant that needs to drain out will. Get a big bucket.
The motor oil is fine. None will be lost. The hoses only carry coolant.
No need to "change" the coolant. You just drained most of it out.
Ok something new going on. This week I went to the first part of trying out for a new job. As I was driving to the place I noticed that my temp gauge was close to the top, like right at the 3/4 way point. It did hover there for me the entire time but what is worry-some is the fact that the heater was going full blast.
This continued the rest of the week and Thursday night I got some coolant and burped the system. Ended up needing about half a gallon if that so was pretty good. Last night I am messing around and replacing diff fluid I both diffs and while under the front I notice the oil pan has a bit of a green sheen to it but only when shining the flashlight just right.
So I go for a run with the new diff oil, get home and swap vehicles to pick the wife up to go to dinner. When we get back to the house there is a nice big puddle of coolant on the driveway that I can tell has come from the overflow bottle. When I was running it around the temp did the same thing, got up to normal operating temp about 1/3 to 1/2 half and then suddenly spiked to the 3/4 and stayed there.
Anyone got any thoughts? I am stumped on this one. Thinking maybe I got a slight clog somewhere?
