Re: What did you do to your truck today part III

Project Fix-a-Leak.

Radiator started leaking around the top seam. The radiator did not look to be in the best condition so I replaced it with an American Eagle 2 row with 1 inch tubes. PO had homemade fan guard/shroud, so I replaced it with a 3 inch chrome unit.

I also had a small oil leak from the back of the intake manifold. I removed the manifold and installed new gaskets. At the same time I installed cast aluminum valve covers and also a new distributor. Got it all finished up this morning for a Friday night and another Saturday afternoon cruise in. Test drive to town and back showed no oil leaks.
