Default Found ya!

Debs ztt has had a water loss issue, looks like the culprit has been found.. The picture is exactly as I removed the housing, I’m surprised the water loss wasn’t like niagra falls!

Hi Andy.
I have never seen one like that, they are well known for leaking in that area, as the Y goes brittle and the seal hardens off.

£25.00 i think new from Island 4x4 place.

Here is one intact but you can see the seal is hard.

Oh my days that was it bad condition, I had to look twice, I’d have thought that the coolant loss would have be quite a serious amount

That looks about as good as the seal on my wife's purse! Enough to notice but not enough to stem the flow!
