Leaking front cover

[ssms5411]

So I’m still leaking coolant, I think it’s my front cover, going to double check when it’s alittle warmer, got the Zzp extra thick timing cover gasket and new crank bolt, just need more oil and coolant and should be set.

I think I’m going to try the GM coolant tabs first to see if it stops the leaking, it’s a small leak. I hate to use a additive but low on funds.

It's not coming from the weep hole of the water pump?

I doubt it, it’s only 4 years old. I’ll check it out though. Installed a new ACDelco right before the turbo kit went on.

Got the tablets in Thursday, did 3 of them. Was having trouble with getting my temp up at idle, only would go to 179 degrees then fans would kick on. So hooked up Hptuners and turned the fans off . Got to around 195 degrees so my 180 thermostat opened. Will do this a few days then check for leaks.

Got the temp up to 210 a couple of times, cleaned my drip pan. Going to keep an eye on it this week. Hopefully it’s stopped leaking. Starting to warm up so might take it out for a spin.

So far so good, no coolant on the pan, had a small oil leak too, so tried some STP high mileage with stop leak. So far it’s not leaking.

Still no coolant leaking, smaller oil leak give it another week then I’ll add more. If I can get the cars off the driveway I’ll take it out.
