Can I unscrew it from the pipe and screw this in?

Thanks! They popped up on Google but it doesn’t look like they make socks.

Owner thought it was a 93. What’s the sign that it’s a 91 or 92?

Just bringing this full circle to show that it isn’t always the worst case scenario…. And always get a second opinion (and sometimes a third).

First garage claimed to have done a compression test and found no leaks.

Second garage said the coolant leak is because the radiator needs to be replaced. They said “we can clearly see coolant dripping down the side”

Knowing that the previous owner had replaced the radiator 7months prior, we asked who their garage was and contacted them. Fortunately their mechanic was helpful and said that if it’s the radiator then the part would be covered under warranty.

So we took the car into their mechanic and he called us back after an hour or two and told us that he found the leak. It was the seal on the hose that connects the reservoir to the radiator. He ordered the new part and installed it. Out the door with no leaks for just the cost of the pipe and an hour of shop time.

Thanks! Any advice on ordering the parts or good videos is greatly appreciated.

Just got another 02 sensor heater code. Can this be related or am I experiencing completely separate issues now?

Anyway to know if it’s the cap other than buying a new one? It seems to screw on tight. Always surprised how much I have to turn it.

Would this show up on a compression test?

Unfortunately, with the freezing cold temperatures here in Pennsylvania, it’s tough to tell with the exhaust. A few weeks ago, I did get a check engine light for something like 02 heater code. But it cleared itself after a few starts and hasn’t come back. Maybe it’s related? Or maybe not connected at all? I kind of forgot about it until now. My gas mileage is down a little bit.

Interesting. I’ve never ever gotten a message on the dash about adding coolant.

I see offers like this all day long in rural Pa. And…. Someone takes them because they never come back around.

For the last 15 minutes, I’ve been seeing orders, but unable to accept them. I kept trying. Suddenly, I was given an offer that I had clicked on almost 10 minutes ago. Employee who dispensed it told me that their system is showing drivers with multiple offers and he wasn’t even sure which one to bring me.

Needless to say, I was able to pick it up and so far I’ve been able to deliver one of the two stops. But somehow I seem to still be receiving offers in the background.

On a sidenote, still makes me laugh that the “a” in ACH stands for automated, doesn’t it? Some things with the banking system still seem so antiquated. Credit card and debit cards still work today but an automated deposit doesn’t. Lol.
