Car water leak around the Starter area and Bell Housing?

This problem is very much noticed by many car models.A proper troubleshooting is required.
First check for any coolant hose above the leak area. Next, look for "soft plugs" located in the cylinder head near the leak. Usually these are very hard or impossible to see, as they are covered by the exhaust manifold. You might have to remove the exhaust manifold to see them. There are also a number of soft plugs located in the rear of the engine block, and on both sides of the block [iron blocks only]
If you have a leaking soft plug, the best bet is to replace all of them. Why? Because you have neglected changing your antifreeze in a timely manner. Now it's time to pay the price for that negligence. All the soft plugs will be rotted about the same amount. If you only replace one now, you will be replacing more of them in the coming weeks and months.
This basic details will help.Thanks.

Intake Manifold Gasket Problem on Chevrolet?

Intake Manifold Gasket related problems are noticed by Chevy model vehicles.
Go through this details.
The problem is rooted in General Motors's design. GM uses a plastic material in manufacturing its intake manifold gaskets. As such, it led to troubles resulting in car coolant leaks. When the coolant leaks, it can cause chaos in the engine, for instance, getting your car's battery messed up. And, yes, it is a culprit to overheating too. Worse, a leaking intake manifold gasket can affect the performance of other car parts, say, the oxygen sensors and the catalytic converter. The solution here is to take out your erratic gaskets and install quality replacements. First, you need to take out the distributor from the top of the intake manifold, disconnect the upper radiator hose and the water pump hose from the front of the intake manifold, and remove the manifold's bolts using a wrench. After that, lower the intake manifold onto the gaskets, then install and tighten the manifold's retaining bolts. Return the hoses and the distributor and you are done.
