About 250 or so miles into a complete rebuild, a little coolant began dripping from somewhere. I believe it's from the head gasket near the rear on the engine. There does not appear to be any coolant in the oil nor oil in the coolant. It appears to only do it when hot and only a few tablespoons puddle while the engine cools.
Not owning a torque wrench or versed in the proper operation of one even if I did, I had an Alfa mechanic torque the head to see if it would stop it. It didn't. He didn't loosen the head bolts and re-torque. He only torqued them (in the proper sequence) to 65 lbs.
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
