Re: [DML] Coolant leak under manifold ... but where?

["Elvis Nocita" <elvisnocita@xxxxxx>]

Take a look at the 4 M7 bolts that hold the Y-pipe in place.
Those bolts are directly in contact with the coolant. If the 
thread does not seal properly, coolant will come out of those
threads. You have to use speacial thread sealant stuff that
can manage the heat and water.

Been there lately....
