Cooling system leak(s) - 5KCSTQ
Hi:
I'm trying this under a different subject to see if it piques more
curiosity/responses. Previous subject was "cooling system crusties".
Briefly, I am getting leakage from just about every junction. Since
replacing the after run relay (pump works now) I got a leak at the
connector end of the pump.
1) Is it possible that the cap on the overflow is defective and holding
_too_ much pressure in the system thus causing leaks?
2) Anybody know what outside diameter PVC pipe I can use to bypass
the turbo pump as I try to seal it?
I promise I will use proper cooldown procedures when the pump is bypassed.
Any and all responses greatly appreciated.
