I smell coolant when car warms up
I have this coolant smell in the car when the car gets to operating temps.
I cant find any leaks, I even did a heat core bypass to make sure that wasnt the problem.
I cant figure out what would be causing this smell, anyone have any ideas for me ? It smells like its evaporating off the block but there are no puddles under the car. And the coolant is still full im going crazy

i've had the same problem for a while now. I can't seem to find the cause either. I'm leaning towards the water pump weep hole since it's the original pump with over 100k on it.

I have checked the weep hole already and it has no signs of leaking.The water pump only has about 10,000 miles on it. Hell the car only has 46,000 miles on it.
