My D1 has developed a coolant leak and drips from the drivers side transmission bell-housing. The heater hoses appear to be fine and there isn't any smell of coolant in the truck. Any ideas?   Aaron Richardet (Draaronr) Senior Member Username: Draaronr Post Number: 354 Registered: 09-2002 Posted on Friday, January 02, 2004 - 10:00 am:    It is running down from somewhere, check along the timing chain cover, not a common problem, but does happen, Sounds like you need to get ontop and under your truck and really follow it back.d   Ron Brown (Ron) Senior Member Username: Ron Post Number: 663 Registered: 04-2001 Posted on Friday, January 02, 2004 - 10:09 am:    intake is leaking at the rear end seal.   Kyle Van Tassel (Kyle) Moderator Username: Kyle Post Number: 503 Registered: 11-2002 Posted on Friday, January 02, 2004 - 10:13 am:    Tighten the intake bolts.........
