Re: Heater Core Leak?


 

Forgot to ask, is it possible to use a different screw (metal?) with
some type of sealant on the threads? or could you have tapped new
threads in the body and use another (bigger) diameter screw metal or
plastic).

I do not think it is the heater core. If it was it would leak all the
time, not just when the heater is on. More likely they did not get all
the air out or did not tighten something and caused a leak.

Please watch out if you try and bleed the air out. There is a bleed
vent on one of the coolant lines behind the engine. The bleed valve
screw is PLASTIC and is very easily damaged. And the screw is not
avail
as a seperate part. You will have to buy a new hose for about $60.
Guess why I know this.
