Depends on the size of the hole and where it's at. Hose leaks (along the hose or at connections) require a new hose. Holes in gaskets and the radiator usually require replacement.
If the hole is small enough (head gaskets, radiator, etc.) a stop-leak repair additive often works - I recommend aluminum based ones, but others such as Bars Leak can also be effective.

    There are several videos on YouTube that show you what you could try. I am skeptical they will give you a permanent fix, but you could give one of them a shot

SOURCE: How do you replace a

before you start you need to make sure that you have the sticker with proper routing of the belt to install the new tensioner and if not make a picture of it this will save a lot of time. next if you haven't already purchaced your part i would recomend any auto part store it will be cheaper than the dealer.most tensioners can be removed with a 3/8 or 1/2 ratchet or breaker bar to fit into the slot on the tensioner. pull one way or the other to release the tension and remove the belt off the pully then you will need a socket or wrench to remove the pully then install new part and belt, check to make sure belt is on all grooves and pully before starting.

SOURCE: changing spark plugs

as you know the front ones are rather easy to get to, but the rear bank is a bear..the best way is on a lift but you can get to them using a 3/8 rachet a 3inch extension and the plug socket.. take the air tube off the throttle body.. reach under the throttle body behind the engine you will feel the plug wires that way.. once you get the wires off the plugs are a pain but changable..

SOURCE: How do I remove the lens to replace rear brake

Open the back hatch. To the side of the light housing where the hatch would normally cover it you will see what appear to be two black round screw covers. These are a type of snap pin retainer. Each one is made of two parts. Gently pry the top part up with a thin blade screwdriver. Make sure to pry it out evenly, not all from one side. It will release. When you get both removed for the light housing will be loose. Don't let it fall out of the body. When reinstalling the light housing be sure that the guide pin lines up properly. Then reinstall the two retainers pushing the top part down as it was before. I hope you will find it easier than it sounds. Keep me posted. be glad to know i made sense and you have working brake lights again.

I have a 97 Dodge Carvan my heater is blowing cold air and the anti-freeze is leaking and the fan is blowing steady.

if the fan is running as soon as you tuirn the key on,thats the resistor,
no heat will happen if the coolant is low and can't circulate ,you need to fill the radiator and over flow container and fix the leak.

The lifter isn't too expensive but the labor to change it will be pretty high. Is it just one? Have you tried different oil or anything yet?
