Small puddle of coolant under car overnight


Hey guys. I'm having a problem right now and its starting to get me thinking ill never get it right. In the morning after my car has been sitting overnight, i find a small puddle of antifreeze under my car on the front driver side near the oil filter adapter. I replaced the o rings in it as well as the gasket b/w that and the block and still small puddles. i've also replaced the thermostat recently too. could i have a faulty adapter all together? If anyone has any advice it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

the adapter can crack, but not not likely the culprit. the thermostat housing is right there as well. check all hoses, and the little junction where all 3 hoses meet.

i would run the car to get it hot and park it to start looking for the leakes. Squeeze the hoses to see if you hear air or see dribbling. Just my .02
