Default Re: Mystery Water Leak

I would check the head gasket. Do a compression test. If your head gasket is bad, you can have two possible cooling system leaks. One, compression leaks into the cooling system, pressurizing the radiator, and forces out water through the overflow tube. Two, water leaks into a cylinder and the exhaust system forces out water through the tail pipe when the engine is under a load.
