Default 1986 Mustang 5.0 problem, HELP!
car is leaking coolant under the passenger side and inside the drivers side cab by the pedals. I think its a cracked heater core but would this cause coolant to leak. Also using heat and defrosters causes a lot of steam to come through vents. I wanna know if I am correct on my assessment. Please let me know. I just bout the car so the 5.0 is new to me. Any input would be appreciated. Contact my by AIM messenger or email if you have an idea. Thank you.
