Default Re: Still leaking?!!!!!!

It may not be exactally what Andy said, but my bet would be something similar to that, like a puckered headbolt hole or something. Perhaps incompatable gasket / head / block combo ?

If it can't hold coolant just starting it up and idling in the driveway then it has to be something obvious ... a large crack or a serious warp or low/high spot on the block / head.

I'm curious about the leaking headbolts theory, even if you have coolant coming up past the bolt threads, that area is still sealed from the outside world by the head gasket ??

Anywho, like everybody else, I'm curious to see what ends up fixing this one, please let us know, and good luck
