Coolant Leak


Recommended Posts

I have a new Coleman 2021 400 with about 10 miles on it. I noticed yesterday that it appears to be leaking coolant. After spending some time tracking it down, appears it's coming from a fitting that sticks out of the block near the oil filter. (maybe the water pump bleed port) Almost looks like there should be a hose on it. I reviewed the service manual to see if I could find what it was, but saw nothing on it. I can get a pic of it and post it, but was wondering if anybody knew what this fitting was for?

If you're talking about the spot where the arrow is pointing in my picture, I believe it is the weep port for the water pump.

If it's actively leaking you probably need a new water pump. If it's just dripping occasionally you're probably ok. You can see some drops of coolant in it in my pic, but it's not actively dripping.

That's it... Oddly enough haven't seen it leak in the past few days. It definitely leaked with the unit off with a decent size puddle underneath. I'll monitor going forward, thanx for replying.

      I have a Coleman Outfitter 550 purchased in January 2022 that runs and operates pretty well.  65 hours on it so far.   It is a work vehicle for my 10 hilly acres with two 1 acre woods and 5 acres of "lawn".  The rest is under a lake. 
      My parking brake does not seem to have any grip.  It worked when new but after a month or so, it is just almost useless.     I press the parking brake pedal hard until it stops. Still, it won't hold even on slight inclines.   I don't see the caliper move as I press the brake pedal down.  There seems to be plenty of pad left on it and the rotor is shiny as if it is rubbing a little when applied, but not enough to stop it from rolling. 
      Any thoughts on possible causes?

      Put a new carb on the 500 to replace the leaking OE one.  Machine idles fine and mid and top end runs great.  It tends to have a hesitation right from the start - bottom end.   Thinking it may be the air/fuel screw??  I didn't do anything with the carb out of the box and is it direct replacement for my machine.  Of interest is the manual choke doesn't seem to work very good now.... wonder is it getting too much air?
       
      Any help appreciated!
