I rebuilt my 2.1 this spring. Was very careful, read everything I could,
watched Ben's videos, etc. Got the motor and new tranny installed. Filled
the system with coolant this afternoon. It's sitting there, not started yet,
unpressurized. I've got a coolant leak coming from one of the upper center
head bolts on the driver side. Tears are still falling as I write this.

Yes I sanded the bolts flat and cleaned up the mating surface on the head. I
used the yellow goop that came with the gasket set.

Should I just drain it, remove the leaking cap nut and reseal it? Do I trust
the other 15?

Looking for advice and a pat on the back to tell me it'll be alright.
