Awesome! Thank you. I covered the ports already. I have new gaskets, and will put them on once i clean it up! Thanks joegr, you have helped me immensely!

I finally got a chance to continue working on this car and i got the manifold off and saw this. Its some plastic piece, I'm almost certain it doesn't belong there but i want to double check. Also what do i use to clean the surface, and is there a cleaner i can use to get all the gunk out of...

I may ask a co worker to try that, not confident enough to try this on my own.

Correct, clockwise. it wasn't budging. ok i will remove the sensor.

Sorry for the long delay, work and the holidats had my hands full. I finally have gotten back to working on it, yes I purchased the elbow also. I am stuck on trying to remove the "EGR system module to exhaust manifold tube fitting" the thing won't budge at all. Im worried about applying to...

I will take a look when I get home to get an idea of that part your talking about.

Thanks for the help, and insight. I will purchase the additional parts on pay day, until then I will continue cleaning it up and see what else wasn't replaced. The shop that supposedly did the repairs was recommended by a friend.

Listening to the very wise member "joegr" I have started removing some of the cooling parts to clean up and inspect future issues i found several things that I need help to identify. The shop i used to replace my cooling parts before was very shady and i see why i am having issues again so...

The one I replaced it with was a Dorman, the one previous was a Motorcraft that only lasted 10 months, and I lost the receipt and the dealer wouldn't honor the warranty without it. I did the bleed process again and coolant never came out the bleeder hose and the air never got warm on defrost...

Yes sir, it came out to 700ish in parts alone. Ok i will definitely check those parts, i appreciate the quick response and help. Ill post an update as soon as I can.

I actually had all those parts replaced, maybe 2 1/2 - 3 years ago. Is that normal for all those parts to go bad that fast? I used that exact thread to bleed the car.

Ok i will try that, thank you!

I searched the tech blogs but didn't find a post that was similar to the situation I am having. I have a 06 LS V8 with 130k miles, I had over heating issues and read the blogs and replaced the degas bottle. Then the thermostat housing was replaced. I ran the car and it isn't overheating but I...
