coolent leak

[alex2929]

i ride a 2002 mountain cat 800. I went to go out riding on sunday and there was a big puddle of coolent under it. I filled it back up and it leaked again. I haven't got around to tearing it appart yet but it appears to be leaking out of the belly pan and looking around under the hood i can't see any in there. Any ideas what i am looking at?

on my old 01 mt cat i had a leak on the coolent hose that runs around the front of the motor. if i remember right, it rubbed on the frame and put a small hole in it. its kind of a pain replacing that hose, but i hope this helps ya]

Pressurize the cooling system and it will be easy to see the leak.

I found the leak.....the black drain hose to drain the coolent system rubbed on the bottom. Should i get that hose from the dealer or could i get it from the hardware store or something like that?
