You know the black metal tibing that has coolant running through it on the 3.1? You knowt he one before the manifold . I was wondering what that was called. I need the gasket for that metak ,
Cooling system worries.
Well on the way back home from picking up some parts that we needed for the engine swap in the gc the low coolant light came on. I pulled into a restaurant. My pressure cap got loose. So I go to check the coolant and it was bare! :roll: Went to the Gm dealership we were just at and bought coolant to the tune of $13.50 a freakin gallon!!! 
(it better clean up the entire cooling system for that price.) I filled it up and went to bleed the air out of the cooling system and it spit everything back out again!!! I got pissed and called AAA. Then I called my other emergency number (Soup . I got it towed to my house and then went to work. Came back, filled it up again and bleed it. It was fine until I put the pressure cap on. Then the coolant disappeared again like it did before. It doesnt go to the overflow. Im not sure where it goes but it does. Now my cooling fan doesnt come on anymore but it hasnt overheated. Im buying the cooling fan relay tommorow to see if thats it. I planned to replace my rad and finally put the heater core Ive had for over a year in the z during the winter when its down. I guess this is encouragement to get this shit fixed asap! Help a brother out? What else could it mean?
