Re: coolant return line leak
While changing the spark plugs I was able to more correctly identify the location of the coolant leak. It is coming from around the metal nipple that goes into the rear corner of the intake manifold just above the #4(I believe) cylinder spark plug recess. Naturally, the recess had antifreeze (along with some oil) in it almost to the top of the plug. The #7 and #8 recesses were also filled with oil, but no smell of antifreeze. Is there any way to remove the nipple from the intake manifold and reseal it without causing any damage? Or, maybe a way of resealing it without removing it(the nipple)? Or, is it time to replace the intake? Thanks again.
