Hi Joe,
You're right, it was frustrating. I was almost ready to pull the engine a
fourth time. A freakin $2 part was the solution. Go figure.
I played golf this morning (shot 73) and drove the car 25 miles through the
back country afterwards in 90 deg heat. No leaks. Kas was right (duh).
Hope there's no tornado's in your neck of the woods. Be safe.
