Hi Tim,
I just finished a major rear of engine refurbish to replace H20 pump,
and that hard metal coolant line that runs from right bank cylinder
head to water pump (looking at the engine from the rear). I spent a lot
of time doing it "right the first time" and am pleased with the result.
Needless to say, I did a few other things while I was in there and now
Vinnie is dry as a bone, No H20 or oil leaks!!! At All.
I was getting oil leals from two spots: from the distributor shaft, and
the base of the oil breather tower. Both have o-rings that seal them up
and they are <underline>really</underline> easy to replace. Provide
extra sealing with grey gasket stuff on the oil breather tower. Bought
the parts I needed from TBD.
Hope that helps.
