Besides something tell me I am a little older than you, you young wiper snapper. (did that sound old enough)

mudseeker · 10-13-2009, 08:12 PM

ha, i'm 25.

Crmzendrgone · 10-13-2009, 08:25 PM

Doah I knew it. Well maybe by experience your older.

mudseeker · 10-13-2009, 08:31 PM

i prefer small engines but am forced to learn the bigger ones due to my truck breaking all the time. don't sell yourself short either, you had the guts to dig into the engine when most people would take it to a shop.

and for the record, i hate fwd engines, such a pain to work on, so your already farther along then i would be with that engine.

Yah I am actually use to workin of FWD working for chrysler for 3 1/2 years. Trust me though when a RWD vehicle comes my way what fun. I loved working on the 6.1L HEMIs oh boy!!!

Another to add I haven't really dove into a chevy engine until now so I am still on the learning curve. but I know enough to be confident.

Finally done was up till 4am AZ time finishing it wasn't bad just had to remember where what went where. After all that it still had a small leak. Does anyone know if the front cover acts as a water pump housing/passage way?
Bar's stop leak seems to cure it for now. The good news for me is it wasnt my fix that was leaking.
