5.0 antifreeze leak Reply #7 – February 02, 2011, 11:54:09 PM When you check for leaks, rev up the motor and look closely for ANY leak or water. Especially around the belt area's. I had a leak I couldn't track down for anything, while I was driving 200 miles a day. I found out it was my timing chain cover gasket, when I reved it up. Quote Selected
