Sorry wasnt sure where to post this but;
Car is a 1996 ek, was changing the coolant in my radiator and decided to clean my iacv as well, so i cleaned the iacv, topped up with cooolant but noticed it was taking alot more coolant than it shouldve, which is when i noticed the coolant leak, it was coming out of the intake, so i took out the intake, throttle body, and peeked inside to see the whole intake manifold filled with coolant, must have had a leak through the iacv?
the car hasnt been started yet, is there a way to drain the intake without removing the whole thing along with all the hoses connected to it? Can i just loosen the bolts that connect the manifold to the engine and let it drain like that? Is my car screwed?
Thanks
