    What size engine do you have? Also, to verify I understand, the leak is on the front side of the engine, same side as the belts, coming from around the crank shaft balancer? If that is the case, then yes, I would have to agree with J.D. in that the gasket may be at fault. Let me know what the engine size is that way I can tell you if there are any other possibilities.

Water pump gasket most likely. or you did not ge the hose tight enough. Failing to get the pump gasket sealed is common.

SOURCE: oil leak in a 98 plymouth breeze 2.0

I've had a 1990 Acclaim, a 1990 Shadow, and a 1998 Breeze, all have a head gasket leak. The Breeze was the only one to have oil leak and it was on the rear of the engine. I'd guess that's your problem.

What's probably happening is the weep hole on the water pump is leaking water. The weep hole is a warning sign that the water pump needs replaced. You don't have any heat because the impeller in the water pump is no longer circulating water.

2000 plymouth breeze 2.4 jumped timing and now leaking antifreeze.

that would'nt make any difference to water pressure! may be possible that your vehicle was overheating! overheating caused excessive pressure in the system, which popped(The noise you heard) one of the hoses, or a connection!

Car stalled from over heating!

My coolant is rapidly disappearing, and I have no clue why?

IF YOU GOT TOO MUCH WATER IN COOLANT SYSTEM AND DONT HAVE 50 / 50 MIXTURE OF ANTIFREEZE AND WATER. WATER WILL EVAPORATE BOIL AWAY.CHECK FOR COOLANT LEAKS LOOK AT TOP AND BOTTOM RADIATOR HOSES LEAKS, CHECK FOR COOLANT LEAKS AROUND BOTH RADIATOR CONTAINER AND RADIATOR CORES LEAKING. CHECK WATER PUMP WEEP HOLE. IF LEAKING WATER NEED REPLACING, CHECK ENGINE CRANKCASE ANTIFREEZE WILL LEAK IN CRANK CASE OR LEAK IN THE INTAKE GASKET COOLANT WILL BURN WITH FUEL.MANY THINGS WILL CAUSE COOLANT LOST.

How do i replace the antifreeze reservoir bottle on 98 plymouth breeze? it cracked and wont hold any antifreeze...

There usually pretty straightforward. Most bottles are attached with a bolt, usually located towards the bottom of the bottle somewhere and on the opposite side a bracket usually retains it. Then of course you have the overflow hose that needs to be removed and that's pretty much it. Good Luck

Antifreeze leak in a 1999 plymouth voyager. Lookslike its coming from around oil pan. Water pump replaced last year.Also no heat

check all hoses .from thermostat to radiator to water pump. check heater hoses.if all is good .make sure your water pump not leaking around the gasket area.if all is good.core plugs could be leaking.
