Last night the "Ported Vacuum Switch" the one which supplies warm coolant throught he heater core started spraying coolant everywhere (seamed catostophic). I can't explain why.
This morning I removed it and inspected it. An un-named parts store wanted $90.00 for a new one (orange). Any how.....I put some teflon tape on the threads, put it back in and it seems fine now....Go figure.
Now......When I was backing the CTO switch, out I inadvertanly popped the PCV hose out of the intake manifold. The one right in the rear center of my edelbrock intake. It seems as thought the PO just had the hose plugged in there and secured it by plopping a huge gob of grey RTV around the fitting. What is suppose to hold the fitting in the hole for the intake? Is it held in place with a grommet? Or, is there suppose to be a machined fitting coming from the intake. On an edelbrock it's the hole directly behind the carberator. From there the hose was connected to the left port of the carberator.
