Took me about 3 hours to remove and put on the JB Water Weld, I must have somehow missed the crack, will be ordering a new one this weekend.

Found a new one on EBay for $139 shipped, anyone else know where to find one cheaper?

That's the best price I have seen. Does it include the sensor and pressure cap?

Agreed. I paid $150 several months back with cap & sensor.

I used a turkey baster to remove the coolant from the expansion tank, just don't put it back in the drawer or your Thanksgiving turkey will taste odd and be a slight shade of orange. (Green?)
