[W126 Coupe] coolant leak

[Mister McGoo]

Larry;

Yes, coolant can be leaking down the back of the engine from behind the 
intake, but it could be from anywhere on the intake.  The coolant goes 
through the heads to the intake and a leak in the gaskets on either side 
could be leaking.  In fact it could be towards the front of the engine and 
running to the back on the top of the block.

It doesn't really matter, the intake manifold must be removed to replace 
both gaskets.

Do you have any coolant in your oil??
