Hi
More problems with my seicento sporting - this time I've got loads of water peeing out onto the ground. It appears to be running down the join between the engine and gearbox - there's a metal plate between the engine and box with a folder over bit that sticks out the front and it's coming from behind that. It's difficult to explain but I'll get a photo if necessary.
Couple of questions - would this coupled with a shot radiator (weeping around the end tanks, not dripping but it's definitely leaking a bit) make it lose enough pressure to boil the expansion tank? I've read about a core plug behind the flywheel - how likely is it that it's this that's leaking, given the location of the dripping and the fact that I can't really see any leaks? And lastly, how hard is it to change said core plug if it's that?
Ta very much
