After all your work. |

Thanks guys. Still plugging away. Upon further review (lol) I had a bad oil leak on the port engine coming over the center where I didn’t have the intake sealed to the block with RTV. We had noticed what looked like water in the oil on the stbd engine dipstick. I pulled both blowers and intakes and the stbd engine looked milkshaked in the lifter valley. So I drained the oil to change it and the oil was perfect. Apparently it was just condensation. I purchased water pressure gauges for each motor, and we ran it again Saturday. We saw 20 psi at 3500 so far which isn’t a big deal.
Also had a few power steering leaks. One was the left power steering seal, replaced it and it’s worse now lol, got more coming. Apparently I pinched it, it’s not a super easy install. The other one was some loose plumbing on the right box, third one is seeping out of the power steering cooler, possibly a crack. May be getting a new one. Still got a small slow oil drip on the right front of the stbd engine that I can’t get to leak bad enough to find yet lol. Upholstery didn’t make it by the 4th of July (today) but that’s fine, he’s doing top notch work and I’ll wait for it. Ordered another trim pump for the port drive. It apparently has a bad check valve or something and won’t stay up. The other 3 are working fine. I finally found some nice straps on the interwebs that I could order in purple and got them put on. I like the looks of them. We installed the engine hatch yesterday, and this morning I installed some xkglow led engine lights for pimping purposes lol.. https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.off...a4ab44fec.jpeg https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.off...87f77c8ab.jpeg https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.off...5c36e24d1.jpeg https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.off...4b6a9e140.jpeg |

Just orrdered a new P.S. cooler from Mr. Cool, new flow through design. Had the same issue as you, put fluid in reservoir a week ago and Saturday it was almost dry. When I flushed it out, some PS fluid came out of the water flow side. Pressure and vacuum tested, tested ok. Must be leaking when it gets hot.
