Well the good news is I know where the leak is coming from. The bad news is that NO MATTER WHAT I cnat get this leak to stop... The leak is on the thermostat housing and is coming out the sides. I bought the new "O" ring from ford and that didnt fix it so i bought som gasket maker and put that on and that just made it worse! What should I do? Has anyone else had this problem?

 

Anyone???

 

Take off the thermostat put a new gasket on

 

are you sure there is a gasket aroung the thermostat on a 99??? it doesnt have one on mine.

 

Mine does but its a different motor. I would imagine yours would to since theres coolant flowing through it there needs to be a seal hence a gasket.

 

Is there anyone with my motor that can confirm this??? I reall need to fix this! My car looks like a fog blur haha

 

it has an o ring on a 99 gt... make sure your putting it on correctly and htat it is seated well before you put on the watter outlet connection to the hose... wiggle it or what not make sure it has a good seal... i'd say use a lil black rtv but u really shouldnt need to with an o ring!!

 

Like wiggle it into the corners? Is there an incorrect way to put an o ring on?

 

???
