I'm sure I don't have to tell you what happens if you get it positioned
wrong.


Mostly what happens is "nothing"  and that is frustrating.
But were you talking about the ausom fire works under the hood?

Ya thats a lot of fun.
The truck is still running good but now the water pump is leaking and I have
to replace that this week.
I did not realize before how many places there are for water to get out of
the cooling system.
First thing most people think of is of cource the radiator.  How many ways
can  you loos coolent. let me count the ways
1. radiator
2. uper hose, both ends
3 lower hose, both ends. water pump
4. intake manifold gasket, 2 on a v6 or a v8    5 heater core, inlet and
outlet or the core itself springing a leak
heater core hose where it hooks to the radiator.
quick connect tube at the back of the intake.
bad head gasketts.
I am sure I missed some thing.
With out listing all the nitty gritty I can count at least 18 places where
coolent might escape.

So far I have taken care of 5 of those places and this week I will replace
the water pump which will take care of one more leak and two other potential
leaks.those would bethe gaskett   where it bolts on to the block. and where
the lower hose hooks up.
Word to the wise. Do!!!! Not!!!! ignore your cooling system. The previous
owner apparently ignored this one and now I am having to chase down all the
leaks but believe me when I am done this thing wont leak a drop any where.
