So I just got done wrapping up the LIM job last week. New LIM gaskets, water pump/gasket, t stat, VC gaskets etc.

I was hoping I could go more than a week without something else going wrong......but flash forward to today and what do I smell while driving? GOD DAMN COOLANT!! What do I notice on the passenger side carpet. GOD DAMN COOLANT. What's on the windshield? GOD DAMN CONDENSATION!! So I assume I now have to drain the coolant again and replace the heater core. It's funny because I pressure tested the system last week and it held fine.

Anyway while I have the whole dash ripped out is there anything else I should replace? Would prefer to never have to take this apart again if I can help it.

Anything else in the cooling system I should replace or inspect?

This thread may be ongoing since I'm learning as I go and am trying to get this p.o.s back in tip top shape.
