I installed the heat exchangers with all new gasket and they were leaking . I removed them to adjust and the gaskets are not usable. I had to order new gaskets.
Are there any tricks to the trade ? The headers that I removed had no leaks . These are six HE's. Not the four. |

QUOTE(914itis @ May 14 2015, 10:38 PM)  I think it says top. I'll look again. That's just dumb luck. TOP is just the part of VICTOR that shows. I've always installed the copper side toward the head, but good to know there's going to be problems the other way. |
