hey guy's theres a pin hole water leak i think its from a pipe on the throttle body i have a pic that shows excatly where about's it is what would be the easiest way to have it fixed ?, Thanks
Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
I had a similar prob with couple of metal to hose connections, what I did was clean it
put a dab of silicone sealant on it and put some heatshrink over it then a
dab of vaseline as the hose had a tendency to bind the edge of the heatshrink
and mine has been fine for years
edit:
Forgot to add that this indicates your coolant might need a flush and you will
prob have other leaks crop up of the same type, ie Steel pipe near ally part...

this is 2nd pin hole leak first one has a heater pipe i hope more don;t pop up ill flush out the raditor and get a new tb thanks
edit: just didn't understand this little part (ie Steel pipe near ally part)
Where there is a steel pipe that is pressed into any piece of engine that is
aluminium, that area seems to be the worst for corrosion. There are a couple
of other places on inlet that this occurs and those are also likely to get pinholes
or cracks weakened by electrolytic corrosion...
