tallimeca, others who've found water in plug wells
 
has anybody figured out how the water is getting into your plug wells? i haven't washed my truck, and we haven't had any heavy rain and i believe my wells are soaked again because my truck is running like ass (will check tonight hopefully).

talli, the reason i mention you is that i put my temp sender for my elec fan in the same spot as you, but also like you don't see how that could be leaking any water?

i'm lost.....

have you pulled your intercooler out at all, or played with any hoses that are connected back there with your radiator?

When I pulled my intercooler out the hose clamp didn't go on all the way and the hose leaked, wasn't difficult to fix but thats what it was for me. :thumbsup:

yes i did, last summer, and after that was when the problem started... however, i haven't lost any intercooler coolant, i've been watching it.

water
 
water has been known to come from 3 places.

1) Where the coolant lines connect to the heater core, there have been some known leaks at these connections
2) Washing your engine down-does more bad than good
3) Where mine has come from- icing your intake at the track. Since the last time i changed my plugs, i know wrap the ice in heavy trash bags so there in no way water leaks anymore.

Hope this helps.......:thumbsup:
