Jeep Repair: coolant, jeep cherokee, hose clamps


Question
I don't know what is wrong with my 1995 Jeep Cherokee.  When I let it warm-up in the morning, it appears to be leaking coolant. But that appears to be the only time.  It is staying pressurized and not leaking great amounts. After it is warmed up it stops leaking. It has only happened twice in the last two weeks. I live in upstate NY where we have had a really cold last two weeks. The weather has been in the negative teens and windchills in the negative 25. I would greatly appreciate help. Thank you for your time.

Answer
When you engine is cold, it is under the greatest mechanical water pressure (thermostat is closed).  When it warms up, the thermostat opens and you have equal pressure throughout the system. You have a leak, probably a loose hose connection.  Have a mechanic tighten all the hose clamps.
