My water neck won't seal. It's a cheap chrome one so I'm going to ditch that one and buy a new aluminum one. Which type are better, the O ring seal ones or gasket type?
Since this is not a dailer driver, do I really need the thermostat? I think part of my problem is that the thermostat is slipping out of place when I'm tying to intall it.
Second, do I need any sealer if using the O ring type, or is it a good idea to always use some RTV?
I also may have had the order of installation wrong. I put the gasket on the intake (with RTV sealer), then the T-stat, then water neck. which also had an O-ring.
I'm just trying to figure if I did something wrong or not.
