    Coolent leak

    We are leak free, I have come to the conclusion you cannot use RTV and gasket together, use one or the other. I end up getting thicker gasket paper and used it by itself. Succes.

    Coolent leak

    Had a close look at it yesterday and it looks like it's coming out of the edge right above the screw. It seams the gasket is not holding it. Tomorrow I'm taking it all apart again and start over, I have new gasket material and RTV.

    It's a brand new pump, it's a very tiny leak through the screw hole. Might have to take the whole thing apart and rtf the crap out of it.

    Coolent leak

    Replaced my thermostat yesterday, now I have a leak. I pulled it back off and noticed that I do not have a even indentation in the gasket. I dried out the gasket since it was new and tomorrow I will put on some gasket sealer. Is there anything else I should do.
