Subject:Re: Valve lifters knocking/oil cooler leak

Greetings.

Well I decided to try the two products suggested for cleaning up the
noisy lifters. Went for the "Wynn's Engine Tune Up" first, it cleans
really well, especially the seal for the oil cooler. Didn't do a thing
for the lifters. Since my oil cooler had sprung a small leak I thought I
might as well dump in the CD-2. The lifters are quiet, but a few days
will tell the truth. Meanwhile, I just had the seal replaced on the oil
cooler, plus a bleed for the coolant system, hoses that had to be
removed. If the seal leaked that easy, it was time to replace it anyway.
Bye for now.
