I was working on my ride this evening. Started her up to move her and noticed coolant on the garage floor. I popped the hood and started her up again and saw coolant running down the overflow hole on the resivoir. If you give her gas, she sprays it from there right in front of the battery. Is something clogged? Anyone have this problem before? Any past experience with this would be appreciated before I start tearing stuff out. Thanks in advance.. -------------------- My new, blue spark plug wires gave my Celica, roughly, 250 more horsepower..
