![]() ![]() There are so many ways this can end badly. ![]() I have to respectfully disagree with you on this bit. It's a hell of a job, requiring R&R'ing the suprercharger and at least one lower intake manifold which probably means you'll need to replace injector seals. If all else fails, try replacing the crankcase breather. Regardless, of course carefully refill the coolant when done.ģ. Or just replace the thing, but OE is 400 dollars and I'm not sure I'd trust an aftermarket one. Another thing that could work is to see if you could bypass the coolant lines going to the cooler, then drive the car gently for a while and see if you see oil coming out the coolant connections on the cooler. Open the shutoff to let a little air in, then close the shutoff and see if the cooler holds pressure. Put the pressure gauge on the cooler side of the shutoff valve. Plug one of the coolant connections on the cooler, and find a way to connect a pressure gauge, shutoff valve, and source of low-pressure compressed air (10-15 PSI, not higher!) to the other coolant connection. Drain the coolant and disconnect the coolant hoses going to the cooler. Or maybe just do it anyway, it's the easiest test.Ģ. If the engine runs any less than perfectly, do a leakdown test to rule out head gasket(s) or related items. Not the right part just need to order 059115185D the whole termostat end holderĠ59121437 - hardline coolant gasket that attaches to oil filter housing.I guess if I were in your situation, this is what I'd do:ġ. not in stock - can be order over the phone 1.54.

I did pressure test cap and it is working as required. This is leading me to a thermostat issue as it appears to be stuck open. as soon as I went down to idle the temp gauge started to drop until it was on low peg. Today I ran today again and temp gauge would not come up to temp unless I was driving down the road. or the water pump as the main seal might be under more strain while under load but at idle in park it doesn't leak. I was thinking thermostat housing/ seals as it would have more flow under load. Could not find anything leaking as I was back at idle in park.Ĭurious what you all think. I took for a quick drive about 3 blocks down and back at 55 MPH and the belts and pulleys where covered in coolant and it was smoking. Started car and let warm up and run for a good 25 minutes so that it would start sending coolant through the radiator and still no leak. I pressurized the system and nothing would leak. Once I popped the hood noticed coolant everywhere as it was thrown around by the belt and pulley's. I got a low level alarm on next start up to move up to garage. I saw pool of liquid below it and determined it was antifreeze. ![]()
