note to self! *optis ftl!*
Okay note to self. . . .make sure ALLLLLL water pump hoses are clamped as tightly as possible because even after tightening them down really good it's still not enough. . . . ._. been working on teh camaro finally started driving it. . . .had it idling at a friends shop suddenly a hoze starts leaking little drops camaro just DIES. . . .think i have the chance of drying out the opti and it starting again? or do you think it's gone for good?. . . .dont have money for a new one and the starter in the formula is dead. . . .

That sucks. How old is the opti? If it were me...the trouble to take it off and manually dry it you may as well throw on a new one. But if it has low miles I'd give it a few days and see if it dries out by itself. After all you have the vented type so just throw a hair dryer on it.
