99 4.3 c1500 leaking coolant and smells like burning coolant. Sears didn't think it ws a big deal. Local mechanic wanted 100 parts and $450 in labor. They didn't know where leak was exactly. I looked for leak and initially couldn't find any. But coolant was everywhere underneath. Drove to work no problem driving back my "coolant low" displayed then the "Trans Fluid Hot" was displayed. I pulled over asap and let cool 2 hours, checked the transmission fluid and it was light brown. Then drove home. Looking at this weekend saw same coolant on bottom of engine, oil pan, and transmission pan (gravity right?) On top hidden on the in a groove was a small collection of coolant. Do i remove all hoses and valves to check intake manifold gasket or use stop-leak products like Prestones flush/cleaner, engine block stopleak, or other stop leaks (i found some at autozone and some Wal-Marts)??
