Leaky head nut ....help please
I have coolant leaking from the head bolt on the right side of my 85hp flathead. Is this stud going into a water jacket with coolant leaking up through the threads or is it not a stud into a water jacket and the coolant is leaking to due the head gasket? How do I fix it? I have observed no coolant in the oil. Thank you for the help.

Re: Leaky head nut ....help please
several of the studs go into the water jacket. pull the stud , you may have to remove the head, and use a sealant on the threads. You may get by by re torquing the head nuts. These leaks are rather common.
