My 1999 chevy tahoe is leaking antifreeze. I

My 1999 chevy tahoe is leaking antifreeze. I replaced the water pump and thermostat and it is still leaking. After further investigation it appears that the intake manifold gasket might be leaking at the front drivers side of the intake, but I am not positive. Is this a typical area where the intake manifold will leak?

It could but- check passenger side front where heater core line go into manifold right behind alternator the hose line is connected by a press clip into an alloy fitting this fitting gets eaten away by anti freeze and hose angle pulls back on fitting the part is $18 at dealer and is screwed into manifold use caution if ur r going to replace at very edge of aluminum manifold---and check ur water pump bolts the 2 longer ones should have a lock sealant on them they bolt in thru a water jacket

1999 chevy cavalier oils like milk in coffee, antifreeze leaked bad last winter, summer only drove 4-6 miles a week checked every time I went to store, used 1/3-1/2 gallon antifreeze, now getting cold out...

you're getting water in to your oil that's why its milky. could be a bad head gasket ,cracked head, or a cracked block, usually one of the last 2. better get it to a mechanic, if its the block it would probably be cheaper to replace the engine, it takes less time and most places charge 75-100 dollars an hour

Leaking water (small amounts) from front driver's side (it's not the water pump). Is there a freeze plug there?

Is it water or antifreeze? Yes there are frost plugs on both sides of the engine block.

My 1999 2-Door Tahoe 5.7L 4x4 is leaking antifreeze. I replaced the water pump and t-stat but it still leaks. After further investigation it looks like it might be leaking from the drivers side front...

There is a water port there. So it is possible. If you try cleaning the area as good as possible and then start the truck and let it run and watch that area. More then likely it is the intake gasket.

Check your exhaust. If the vacum is not complete, the truck may idle like ****. Same for your catalytic converters and O2 sensors. do a system check at a garage.
