    I like to block it. There's too many times I've seen a TB gasket blow etc and cause issues. No coolant..no issue.
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.

    AHA! Blocking it takes TWO potentially leaking gaskets out of the equation. I knew about the TB gasket but didn't even think about the coolant flowing through it.
