I just got my WD 45 running again. it is running fine but antifreeze is leaking a little from between the head and block around the head gasket all the way around the block. it is not blowing any water out the exhaust and I do not believe it is leaking into the oil pan. The oil level has remained the same. What should I do? Any suggestions or help would be appreciated.

Did you just replace the head gasket? What did you use for sealer? Did you have the head checked for warpage?Did you tighten the head from center out. Have you rechecked the torque? Earl In Illinois

I just got it running again after sitting for 3 years. I haven"t taken the head off at all. I took the valve cover off and have checked the torgue and some of the bolts were lose. Since this is has been leaking less. it is not leaking water into the pan. it just dripples down the side a little. I have a pressure radiator cap on it.

Did it sit all that time drained? If it did that is not unusual. I would warm it up good and use some aluminum cube sealer.Some guys use black pepper and swear by it ,but I have never tried that. Earl In Illinois

You either have a head gasket that is going bad or the head/block is warped/not flat/true. At the very least I would pull the head and look close at the gasket. If it looks good I would have the head checks to make sure it isn't warped and also check the top of the block to make sure its flat like it should be. Either way I would run it much if any till you did those thing or you could end up with bigger problem
