Ford8n Antifreeze

them caps at TSC ARE Junk and flimsy! anyhow the governor on my 8n is leaking oil should i just replace the seal in it or replace the hole the governor or get a repair kit and do the seal its dripping from the bottom dont no exactly were


pull the gov housing off.. check for warping on a flat surface.. over tightening bolts will warp the housing.

sometiems you can sand them lightly on a table to true them.. then use a new gasket.

if the innards are good.. no need to repalce.

ps.. remember where the botls came out of and make sur ethey find them same holes.. don't be putting longer bolts in them holes needin shorter bolts.. or you'll be back here asking how to repalce a fiber cam gear.. :)

if a single drip, or simple 'wet spot'.. i'd hardly worry.. if 'drips' and or stream.. fix.

IMHO.. it's probably the former...
