Funny =E2=80=93 I solved coolant issues earlier and yesterday.

Had to replace the thermostat housing gasket and yesterday I had to replace=
 the hose connecting the bottom radiator pipe to the waterpump.

A horrible job to do, as there is almost no space to work at the bottom of =
the radiator pipe.

Nut with a dry result!

 

Fully cleaned a clogged charcoal filter and renewed the charcoal particles.=


Replaced the oil filler cap and will renew the brake fluid tomorrow.

Then the GT should be roadworthy again.

 

Cheers,

Hans

Hi Friends,

   My TR6 rebuilt engine leaks coolant. Okay, its not an MG but the issue i=
s universal. Here's the short story.

   When reassembling the waterpump I made a newbie error. I got in a hurry =
and left out two bolts, some of the bolts that hold the pump body to the he=
ad. The coolant leak is through one of those bolt holes. The threaded hole =
drilling entered the head's water jacket and of course, leaks.

   I now have new bolts and I will apply sealant to the threads and place f=
iber sealing washers under the bolt heads. Doing so hopefully completes the=
 engine rebuild. I can then get back to replacing the top on my MG TD.

 

Rick
