coolant leak turned out to be two header bolts on the driver side. I didn't know they went into coolant jackets...wierd. put some teflon on 'em and sealed right up. Then I took it out for a test drive with the fuel trims off in open loop. Runnin' good.

The fed ex man came with my MT DR's, I gave him a hug. It would have been a perfect day if he wouldn't have knee'd me in the *****.

I dont think they do go into coolant jackets. Might have been an exhaust leak and that was normal condensation from combustion, although thats a bit of a stretch right at the header flange... Hmm. well just keep an eye on it.

Also, nice to see youve got a good personal relationship with your local fedex carrier
