2002 Chevrolet Impala - Answered Questions & Fixed issues
Soft plug at the back of the engine is leaking,
you engine has about 10 freeze plugs,there were created to be pushed out by ice if your antifreeze wasn't strong enough and froze inside the engine,that way the ice didn't crack the block when it expanded.
what causes freeze plugs to leak is the erosion affects from the antifreeze we use today,when they tell you to change your antifreeze every couple of years,the freeze plugs take another shot of strong antifreeze again,they just rust up on the inside of the engine until they get a rust hole in them
My 2002 Chevy impala seems to be spitting out a little water from the exhaust.i
Fuels, petrol or diesel, are known as hydrocarbon (hydrogen and carbon) fuels and so when burned in air (oxygen) one of the resulting products is a considerable amount of H2O or water.
Mostly this is expelled through the exhaust as vapour but at certain times, such as when the air is cold and dry and the engine and exhaust system is cool, the vapor will condense and emerge as steam and water droplets.
When a vehicle has lots of short journeys, the exhaust can become waterlogged where the silencers can retain a great deal of water and are likely to be spitting water droplets almost continuously. Often the sound at the tailpipe will be more harsh than usual. Some manufacturers have a small hole at the lowest point of a silencer to allow surplus water to drain away and sometimes a mechanic will drill a hole...
Spitting water and emitting steam is often seen as a sign of a failing head gasket and the confusion is understandable as it is a natural function and could be a symptom of head gasket trouble but it is a symptom that should not warrant much attention in isolation - clearly if a failing head gasket is the source of water spitting from the tailpipe, the coolant level will be mysteriously falling without obvious leakage and often the engine will suffer a misfire on starting...

A couple of things. Your thermostat could be stuck or you have air i your coolant system. Bleed your coolant system. If the coolant is low, you can also have that issue so check for a coolant leak. If you check your oil and it looks like chocolate milk, then you could have a blown head gasket. Check all of these first.

Here's how it really works mechanics technicians dude I've been on short for 11 years and we tell people at Haven in this is all going to be done and and three hours you know you really hope it will get done like that but sometimes it may take another hour and a half because you never know what you may face going into the job but I wouldn't panic I just give them for hours and just go watch a movie or something or go help somebody something good
