Coolant leak question...

[nik97]

My '90 started to leak a bit of coolant recently. I discovered that it is coming from the bypass tube thing(would have run a search but I obviously don't know the proper name for the leaking part) that runs from the WP to the T-stat housing under the fuel rails. It's leaking at the Housing end where the tube enters(rear/LH side). Here's my question: Is there an available gasket or o-ring that I can replace and what is the components proper name. Also where is a good place to find what I need... RCM?

Thanks:wave:

Yes there is an O ring on both sides... they come with the kit for the Water pump gasket....
Im pretty sure that RCM sells this package. I'll double check.

EDIT: yep... its here... http://home.earthlink.net/~rcm_automotive/id2.html
its 14.99

But i think you can just get some O rings from an auto parts store as well. I dont remember them being all that special.

EDIT2: Here is Advance's parts.

If that doesnt work, the part number is ES70425
