My heater core has developed a leak, and I never use the heater anyway so I'm thinking of bypassing it and just connecting the hoses that run to...
I filled mine with gear oil (80 90) and it didn't leak until I had drove it about 15 miles. I hope your story works out better!
Thanks Karl, I'll dress up the ball with emory cloth. I've got some left over permatex that I'll use on the bolts. We've got the straight 140 wt...
