STR posted:Generally, bad head gaskets result in the engine consuming coolant, or the oil and coolant mixing, and generally exhaust gases entering the cooling system. I can't say I've heard of a head gasket causing an oil leak (except on Nissan timing covers This guy doesn't gently caress (with subarus).

), but valve cover gaskets certainly can and will (and there's about a 99% chance of them being the source of the leak).

hitze posted:Yeah slap a drat electric fan in there and call it a day Was waiting for this suggestion to come up with the cost of these unobtainium units. I'd replace both of them with decent electric ones and make sure there's a halfway decent shroud setup (this makes a big difference, don't ditch the stock one and see if you can find a similar or same size aftermarket fan to fit in there), with thermo control. Also clean the hell out of that heat exchanger because it doesn't look like it's going to be able to do much otherwise. Might be bearing grease from a dying fan or mud/muck, who knows. A really soft bristle brush might not bend the fins too much, and some tweezers can help bend them back straight after. Suburban Dad fucked around with this message at 02:03 on Jun 4, 2019 |

You might try taking the rusty trans cooler hose line to a hydraulic shop to see if they can replicate it. Seems that wouldn't be hard for <$250.

You know a pump IS working usually when you hear it hum with the key on.

I know them as flare wrenches, maybe try using that terminology and see if you still get weird looks.

everdave posted:I would not be super concerned that the filter was smaller if it fits right otherwise, hopefully you can just get that missing part. Except that it won't fit in the fuckin' bracket. That sucks dude. Hope you can get the right stuff and it helps somewhat with how it runs.
