    Coolant Leak , Front of Engine

    How do you remedy this? Is there something I need to be aware of while replacing the WP? Do I just use new anerobic sealer when im putting it all back together or does the aluminum timing cover have to come off?

    Coolant Leak , Front of Engine

    If I am going to do this I will upgrade the fan at the same time so, I think I will go with the 2000 HO WP (providing it definately fits the '94, I don't wanna have to return an order). I found all of these thru Amazon for less than $250 w/ free shipping, bosch 99159 HO wp $76.39, acdelco...

    Voltage not steady, drops at night when lights are on,code 36 culprit?

    Ok I think I got it fixed. The wire coming from the alternator was only 10awg, so I replaced it with a 4awg, and when doing so found the allternator post was loose. So I took that off and took it apart, and cleaned up the contact points on the spindle, and tightened up the nut to the alternator...
