...because that's where I suspect mine's leaking from.

I'm loosing ~1/4gal of coolant every time I drive the truck. I haven't noticed any on the ground. It seems to be evaporating off the engine before it can drip down enough to start pooling.

I suspected that the system might be leaking out the back of the thermostat gasket, but that doesn't seem to be the case. NathanC was under the truck on Friday, and as the garage was warming up, coolant started dripping on him. From what I/he/we could see, it appears to be leaking out the front of the intake manifold gasket (manifold to head seal). Just wondering if anyone's ever had the same occurance?

Thanks!

P.S. I recently had my coolant hoses changed and the problem started occuring shortly after. I believe that the mechanic who pulled the hosese off yanked too hard on the upper hose and that may have caused the damage.
