Hello, all,

I just put one container of AlumaSeal Liquid into our '91 - and it appears
that the head leak is plugged for the time being. At least there was no
obvious seepage after rumming the motor to operating temperature until the
radiator fan started cycling. I still have to finish the rebuild on the
steering gear - the hydraulic fittings are froze up solid and I am afraid to
use any heat in there...lots of WD-40...
