One from a few weeks ago... I was having coolant issues, had the fan clutch rebuilt a year ago, along with replacing the waterpump with the correct one and then in Sept -Oct I noticed a small coolant leak. I originally thought it was the radiator and was going to pull it and have a new core installed. I finally traced it to the water pump gasket on the pass side - apparently it was due to my faulty installation over a year ago.
Not a drip after pulling the water pump and putting in a set of NOS gaskets -





and a few photos from Today...

Nothing like taking them out and stretching their legs a bit. Great pics James!
