Well, as they say, it's a long, sad story. As I was finishing replacing all
the shift bushings [remember when I say 'I' I 'mean' my buddy Tom who
actually knows what he's doing] I noticed a leak from around number three.
Coolant. Crud. New engine time.
Ordered it, be done next week.
Crud.
Crud, crud.
