    Sad Sad Day

    Finally done all the demodications to the Pigtrol. Yay. Sh!t, where is the water going out of the radiator. Found it in the sump. As fast as I pour it in the radiator it's draining into the sump. Devastated is an understatement. Now commiserating.

    Been off the road for a while. Replaced the water pump a couple of months back. Water was low when checking the fluids before kicking in the guts. So dont really know as the water is disappearing faster than I can fill it. Am thinking major internal corrosion.

    Sounds nasty Dhuck .....

    I can't see how corrosion in the block could happen like that as there is a fair bit of meat between the internals and the water jacket.
    I would be looking at bolt-ons such as the oil cooler, or something similar, or possibly the gasket for the water pump you changed over
