my truck has a leak, coolant, that looks like it comes out from under the intake somewhere, and runs down the starter, onto my front driveshaft, then onto the ground. its a pretty steady leak, about a drop a second when truck is running. i think it may be a head gasket, but im not sure. i already replaced the intake gasket, but that didnt help. any help would be appreciated, thanks guys.

There are a couple water hoses under the intake manifold, I'm sure you dealt with them while changing that gasket. Check those hoses really well. You could have a pin hole in one, or maybe didn't get it on all the way.

One is the by pass hose, it runs from the water pump to the manifold, and the other is a heater hose that runs from the manifold to the fire wall. There is also that other heater hose the runs from the fire wall to the top rear of the manifold.

OK, I'm over it. Where's the beer?

also one of your freeze plugs could have rusted through. they aren't all brass or your temp sensor could be leaking
