can someone help please
I have a 97 yukon with the 5.7 vortec. Its been loosing antifreeze. Granted i just did the head gaskets maybe 10,000 miles ago. Today i brought it home and a puddle of antifreeze on under the truck by the rear of the motor on the passenger side. I can see it its all over the starter trans and oil pan. What would cause this? Freeze Plug. I am not to familar with the vortec motors. can someone help me please.. it snowed here now i dont have my 4x4 just 2 camaros lol..

also check the coolant nipple on the intake. could be leaking and letting the coolant run towards the back of the engine......... also check your heater hoses and back of the intake........
