The leak in the I/C was actually in the core itself which I believe they themselves do not make. They only place the end tanks and mounting brackets on it. All good. The leak was on the outside edge so I used a 2 part epoxy and now tests good at 50 psi. Goes back on this weekend.

found out the shop that "did" my 60k service did not do the belts etc... which is why the evo was down. 8 teeth on the belt was gone, please take your evo to a TRUSTED shop that will show you what they took off YOUR car and the oem stuff they put on your car. timing belt problems are pretty catastrophic.
the shop i had taken it to, to do the 60k was an evo specific shop... smh cant trust everyone |
Washed the tires and wheels carefully and made some wonderful noises under a couple of overpasses.
