1999 2.5 Wrangler-The Jeep has overheated a couple times in the past few days, I filled the radiator with anti freeze and had no problems until I started running my heater. On the drive home I noticed my windshield became covered with coolant. When I stopped I noticed itseemed to be leaking from the front of the engine. I have never had a vehicle sling coolant all over the front glass so I'm puzzled. Thanks

Hi there,

You will have to get the cooling system pressure tested to locate the leak, when located replace repair faulty component re fill coolant, run up to temp with heater open to aid in bleeding air from system, re check coolant level when engine has cooled. The leak may be from the radiator hoses or a failed water pump.
