davidwort 0 Posted May 1, 2009 follow the bottom radiator hose to the block, it's in plastic elbow that connects the hose to the bottom of the water pump PITA to get at, need to remove PS pump and associated brackets Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

davidwort 0 Posted May 1, 2009 you need a new o-ring and don't over-tighten the little 10mm bolts, better to just nip them up with a bit of threadlock on them. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
