Looks like we are going to the hang overs starting the 30th of December down at Tucson.  I won't go down until the 31st as I have to work the 30th.

I'm sure it's the same except for turnout, it'll never be the same as the old days, unfortunately.

Wasn't all oil.  It is antifreeze washing some of the grease build up off the engine onto the plastic cover that's under the oil pan.  Looks like the water pump is going south. I cleaned up a bunch of the oil and grease so I can keep an eye on it for now. Also the engine cooler lines look like they are leaking as well.  Have no idea why after 20 years.  :rolleyes  :laugh

Well, that's good now hopefully it's not the radiator and just need to tighten a hose clamp, probably just need to snug up a fitting on the cooler. :good

Nope.  Not a clamp.  I could feel all around all the hose connections and all is dry. Even around the T-Stat housing Can't get to the bottom of the water pump to see if it's weeping out the check hole without pulling the fan and upper shroud.

Bummer, well since you have to all that to see the water pump, then that probably is where the leak is at. :laugh

I had basically the same issue back in 09. once I got the upper shroud off and the fan off, I could see the pump and it leaking from the check hole. Thats when the pump was replaced.  About 65k miles ago.

Doubt it would be an issue, they never looked at mine for that, they were always too busy trying to find something wrong with the smog equipment so they could fail it without even running it. :rolleyes
