Not only that daughter had coolant hose coming off rear of left head for heater core rupture last night while I was driving back from FFO in Nashville.
She parked car at Shell station and got my neice to come get her as coolant poured right out when she tried to troubleshoot location of leak by adding water. Sharp gal and she had to shut down a couple of non car guys who thought they could help a "helpless damsel" [not] in distress.
She then proceeded to come over to my Alfa house and "steal" my new used Dodge Ram after she had a short test drive off main roads as she had to go to college campus today to sign up for fall classes.
She likes Dodge truck better than Ford Ranger.
I made temp repair today when I got back in town and coolant system and engine check OK, except for return of the mayo.
She said she told me about mayo last time she added oil but it must have went over my head.
May just really have to pull Originalle of the road now after about 220K as I had planned last winter since heads have been retorqued and Barrs Stop Leak helped hold off mayo attack for almost 6 months.
Black Beauty performed flawlessly today coming back from Blacksburg so will put daughter into it for awhile.
Yesterday was day for white 164s to have issues as my son's ex-wife's 164L quit and my grandson called his dad for help. It turned out to be red-stripe relay for engine ECU so not a real hard fix.
Glad my son and daughter both have some car smarts. I think my grandson is getting good training from his dad, too.
