have antifreeze leak

[dueyk1111]

have developed an antifreeze leak at the front of my 06 venture, didn't leak till i brought it home from storage. leaked just sit'n in the garage. jacked it up n looked under and itz wet from the front to back. isn't wet at the top. starts bout half way down, can't see for sure but believe it'z com'n from the thermostat housing. gonna order new thermostat n o-rings and then dig into it.  any thoughts or advice, TNKZ!~

Depends on exactly where it’s leaking from.  It is very common for them to leave at the freeze plugs behind the fake cylinder find.  Very easy and cheap fix.

ckecked those already n they're dry. thought bout those. no, itz wet up front just down from where the thermostat is. TNKZ!

anyone know whether itz easier to get to the thermostat down from the top or take the radiator out? looked in the tech section and didn't find anything.

I had to replace the thermostat and one of the sensors on my 2007 many years ago, I did not remove the radiator, pulled the tank and did  all the work from the top.  I do not recall it being overly difficult.
