john in KY Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 Just noticed/discovered coolant collecting on the right rear side of the engine. Fairly sufficient leak. Dripping down on the motor mount. At a lose at what is the source. Can't see any coolant hoses on that side of the engine. Is there one for the throttle body? Is there a temp sensor in the area?

john in KY Posted February 28, 2020 Author Share Posted February 28, 2020 Discovered a coolant line that side of the engine and decide to just replace everything over there since the intake manifold has to be pulled. What is a good online Subaru dealer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Numbchux Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 (edited) Yep, there's a steel line under the intake manifold, with a little rubber hose up to the throttle body, that's likely your culprit. Can be capped off or bypassed. I love Toyotapartsdeal.com, and they have a Subaru counterpart (www.subarupartsdeal.com) Edited March 2, 2020 by Numbchux 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try this one: http://www.subarupartsdeal.com EDIT: FYI, when I google SubaruPartsDeal, it appears that they are owned by Genuine Parts Giant, Inc., which supplies parts for all types of cars.

john in KY Posted February 29, 2020 Author Share Posted February 29, 2020 Thanks for the links. Decided to bit the bullet and went and ordered all new hoses. Figured why not since the intake needs pulled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Took a closer look this morning with the "air tube" removed and noticed one of the hose clamps was installed wrong. My fault when I pulled the engine 2 years ago to correct another one of my screw ups. Took the wife out for dinner and put 60 miles on the engine and no leak. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tried to just add [url ] tags....fixed now. Yes, it's the same company. I haven't bought Subaru parts there, but I've bought others. I use their website all the time, as it will actually show you if a part is discontinued. 12 hours ago, john in KY said: You nailed it.
