Yes, I took the belt, alternator, ac compressor rad hose and anything else that would be in the way off for clearance. He put a nice bead on it. Cost me a bottle of Belvedere and a case of Lite. Gotta love that!

That's fantastic! I love it when something can actually be repaired and not just replaced! It's probably better now than it was when it was new.

The issue is not the bolts, it is from using the wrong reservoir gasket.

It is an easy install. I just goofed up. I put the gasket with the filter where the filter-less gasket goes. The torque is 18 ft/lb on the bolts.
