Frank,

Try to get a look at the front right corner of the head gasket area. this is just behind and above the water pump. This is the area of a lot of head gasket leaks. Mine was leaking there and that ended up causing me to put on one of Piers heads!



There also is some short hoses from the transmission cooler that hook up in the same area. Is all the coolant on the front of the engine or along side the block on the passenger side?



I hope it's something simple!

I dont think its gonna be a trannie cooler on a manual. I looked at the head gasket area ant it looked like it was just spray back but being dark its hard to tell exactly.

any idea where i could find a water pump? I'll check it all over again in the morning

Frank

Duh---Didn't read your signature about the 5 speed! If it isn't leaking around the head area it almost has to be the pump.
