coolant leak on top of engine? I just went out to change my plugs when I noticed my fast intake had pools of coolant near the runners. There does not appear to be any on the heads but the cruise control cables and injector plugs also have some coolant on them. Its all on the passenger side of the intake area. Where could it be coming from? (haven't started it yet.)

The only place there is cooant anywhere near that area is the throttle body heater hose. It's the small hose running from the passanger side of the TB to the rad. Under pressure it may have a small leak and spray on your intake.
But if you have a FAST, you may have already eliminated this hose.

no puddles under the car and I do have a fast 90 intake. everything on that side seems "misted" with coolant so I guess I will have to clean it up and look around with it running. Coolant is also a little low but I never had an overheat light or anything prior to garaging it for the winter.
