Coolant Leak
Hello, I have developed a coolant leak on my vehicle. It seems to be coming from a valve situated on the left hand side (as you look at the vehicle from the front) My question is what is this item called? I need this as parts are difficult to obtain over here in the UK unless you can tell them EXACTLY what you want! It is inline on a a pipe approx 1 1/2 inches in diameter, wit a 1/4 inch pipe leading from it and looks like a coolant return pipe from the heater, though not absolutely sure. The truck has front and rear air. The pipe is adjacent to the exhaust manifold. Many thanks in advance

I live 'bout 10 miles south of Salina. I couldn't imagine paying $8.00 for a gallon of fuel and driving a 454 Burb, no wonder its been parked...
As far as inop wipers/washer, check fuses, grounds, connections, etc..
IIRC, there was a factory recall on the "wiper motor relay" (lil' circuit board). It would cause the wiper motor to quit unexpectedly, it may or may not be a contributing factor.
