Hey guys, just changed my Tstat this monday because i had a leaking tstat housing, figured i would change the tstat and seal while i was at it, got everything put back together heater was finally working again (im assuming because the air in the system was out) but as i drove a little longet i realized my heater didnt really work.. sure enough got under the car and its leaking again... :nonono: is there any kind of sealant that goes int between the parts.. might have to replace the hoses too to be on the safe side.. thanks again, wish i could post pictures but cant figure out how to.. :shrug:
