I went to inspect closer and i realized that the upper most bolt wasn't on very tight, so i'm thinking that maybe i'm leaking due to the seal not being tight enough.
The other thing i noticed is a 'chunk' missing from the inner circumfrence of the cover of the T-stat housing. I guess this 'chunk' was about 2mm x 2mm... not very large and still enough room to have pressure on the rest of the gasket.
I'm waiting for my friend to come home so he can watch the area where it previously leaked while i pressurize the system. In the meantime, any guess as to which of the above (or neither) was the likely culprit of my leak?
If i need to repair this missing chunk from the housing, can i repair it myself with somem metal-like putty, or is replacement the solution?
Thank for everyone's help.
