The Ford Barn - View Single Post - Slight coolant seep on number 8 head nut (distributor cable)

Seeping coolant around head studs is not uncommon. I used aluminized stop leak in the radiator and the problem went away. The engine only had about 1,000 miles on a rebuild. If that does not work no option except to pull the head. With 30 psi there may be a rebuild in the future.
