Leaky fittings
#3
normal worm clamps on a barb fitting. The same setup which reduces the hose size is at the heatercore lines which are not leaking. I can see the coolant leak out from the threads. This only happens when i shut down my car. There was no leak or steam as i idled for 10 mins and the second i stopped it, the smoke show started.

"If for any reason your must remove it - DO NOT use sealant or you risk sealant getting into the turbo bearing and blocking oil flow. No sealant, no sealing washer, no nothing."

Yeah I can see that argument, but Im sure they have to cover their ***. I cant see the coolant being contaminated by thread sealant at the tops of the threads. I wouldnt get it on the lower threads though.

since you are using a BEGi kit, give em a call or email. Stephanie (Corky's daughter who seems to do most of the human relations type stuff) is active on the board, so you can also try giving her a PM, she knows her stuff.
