Hey Everybody,
I just finished the last final detail on my H/C/I install, and was filling up the radiator with new coolant and about to fire the car up when I noticed a coolant leak.
Coolant is leaking from one of the two lower right hand bolts/bolt holes that retain the timing chain cover to the block.
I removed the bolt, added thread sealer to the bolt, reinstalled it, and poured more coolant into the radiator. Bolt/bolt hole is still leaking.
Any thoughts/suggestions? I haven't even fire the car up yet, but apparently coolant is traveling up the lower radiator hose through the water pump etc. and leaking out this bolt/bolt hole.
