Im putting the miata back together, today i bought new radiator fluid began filling the radiator all was good untill it stared pouring out the engine on the intake side!! i cant find out wher!! i was told thers a block drain bolt and Im wondering if its on that side and maybe i fergot to put it back in! tore the starter out thers no holes behind it and thats the general place it was coming from please help before i waste more money!!

 

did you put the heater hoses/ Back of the head parts together

 

Cursed rubber water plug on back passenger side of the head?

Is it towards the back, middle or front of the block?

 

well i tore off the intake again ...Pissed about that! think its coming from the head gasket and if so im going to be even more pissed its a performance gasket it got dark too quick going to have to look closer in the am.if it is im going to be mad i have to take everything back apart after sealing everything up with gasket sealer!

 

this was useful : ) thank you
