water leak? in 86 near catalytic converter

[jerryil]

So after sitting in the driveway overnight, I noticed a small patch of water on the ground this morning. There is water slowly dripping out of one of the (bolts?) right beside the catalytic converter. Anybody have an idea where I should start? Thank you!!!!!!

Right beside, or right above it?

Take a real close look at the engine oil cooler.

Pretty common area for the seal above the cooler to be leaking.

Get a coolant pressure tester on the expansion tank---you'll know exactly where it's coming from right now.
