About a week ago I did a coolant flush. Today after I parked I noticed some coolant directly under the petcock. It is intermittent and doesn't happen on every trip.
I was very careful with the petcock since it is plastic (and 15 year old plastic at that). I did not over torque it, as soon as it stopped turning I let off
The question : I see Mopar sells a replacement petcock with a new o-ring. How the heck does the petcock come out? Mine stops after a quarter turn, I feel like there must be a trick to remove it.
I want to remove the petcock so I can replace the o-ring or perhaps replace the entire petcock.
I suspect the o-ring is hard or cracked due to age and allowing leakage.
Thanks for any help.
