Hey a tampon worked for the Bullrun guys. Use one of those for the leak then get the center console door fixed / replaced. ;)

What is the source of the A/F leak?

Yeah, $3-400 would allow for replacing most of the cooling system, and chances are it's a gasket.

bad hoses or jsut a whole new system. I'm thinking the tubes casue i tighted the clamp and it stopped for a while but it is now happening in 2 places so i'm waiting for a day off to check it out.

Yeah, don't monkey-fist the worm gear clamps too much. You can overdo it, snug is fine. Where exactly is it leaking? Engine side or radiator side?

near the hose clamp, and near the firewall on the passenger side.

Could be a problem with your heater core. See if you can grab a pic and post it up.
