    Should have bought 2!

    Kpro, it's not the O2 sensor...which probably needs replacement soon...but I have an actual exhaust gas leak into the engine bay on a cold start.

    Not thrilled about that. But I am thrilled about getting headers...Should give me quite a boost in power to the wheels.

    So I'm still leaking coolant somewhere on the front of the block. It has reduced in pace and I can get about 400 miles before the ET is low...probably gonna piny up for an inspection so I can see what else is wrong with my car

    Not sure if this had already been suspected but did you look around the water pump somehow with a small mirror or anything? I know it's kind of buried in there but if it's coming from the front of the block I can't think of what else it could be...

    Waterpump was replaced with a Stewart EMP and was checked for torque on Thanksgiving. I'm starting to suspect that my o-rings got fried with the Thermostat disconnected

    When the thermostat is bad or disconnected, it's in the open position... should cause any overheating....
