Engine crank seal
… Looks like I have something to add to the seal saga. Today I rigged up a hoist to lift the front of my 455 engine as my front seal is leaking like a sieve. The odd thing about it is my engine only has 5,000 miles on it and it started leaking at around 2,…

Re: radiator coolant level sensor question
That brings a mens mall trip to mind. Some of my cars have a low coolant sensor on the radiator overflow/surge tank. I think I'll get one of those to use on the GMC and wire it up to indicate.
