    Wanna bet???????

    Where your manifold has dissolved? is a common occurance------lots of aluminam erosion in all vehicles/engines over the yers NEAR where the coolant has left the cast IRON area and entered the aluminum. Particularly common in intake manifolds and front cover/water pumps bolted to cast iron blocks/heads-------

    Running common ground straps to radiators, etc, can help and I personally believe lots comes from guage sensors being grounded to manifold so current is introduced to coolant at a vulneble area
