Seems to be a pattern here....
Was looking at the engine tonight and noticed that something had been leaking on my passenger side exhaust manifold. Sure enough - the wye on that side was wet. I just replaced it a little over a year ago by splicing in a new wye. Wait - the hose above the wye is wet - and what is this residue on the heater control valve.
Yep - it's bad. Leaking out around the pivot. Got one on order from Amazon. Of course, this time of year, even with Prime and two day free shipping they say it will be here NEXT Friday. No biggie - other cars to drive. Not a big deal to replace but maybe I should buy a Jeep?
