1978 Civic Anti-Freeze/Coolant leak.
My 1978 Hona Civic CVCC is dripping coolant from the lower right hand side of the engine. I dont know where the leak is. My brother took a look and said something in the region of the leak was loose. It wasn't loose tubing, what could it possibly be? will post pictures if necessary
If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

That's not a leak.
That's sweat. It's sweating from all that horsepower!
I rebuilt one of those like about 30 freekin' years ago.
Those cars don't even exist any more, here in the rust belt.
I can't see a dang thing.
Maybe, just maybe, you should ask your brother exactly WTF he saw.
Or, you know, post some good pics.
