Yes, I was quite annoyed today...

... not at the car... at myself.
I just can't figure out what I did wrong!

At any rate, I had about half a dozen A/C mechanics standing over the engine and got a pretty good consenous as to what type of sealant to try to stop the leak.

The majority today said that they thought this "B-HALF" would work better than the Pig Putty because it stays slightly flexible.

Tomorrow, I'll spray it down with brake cleaner and use a wire wheel to clean up the surface real good and then have Jared come down from work with some of his "Magic glue".

It is definately worth a shot...

Failing that... it's re-rebuild time... but that will take me out of the Hill Climb, Parade, and probably prevent me from bringing my car to the roundup... which would suck.


So, we'll try this first.


...keep your fingers crossed for me.

Oh, and Cary, yes I could really use that crankshaft seal installer...
