Thanks again for the GREAT info. I never know why those extra holes were there, indeed. But don't think I have to remove to that level (yet, though might).
Sad news (well, could be worse) is that my water pump or gasketing there seems to have failed (long time since last pump), otherwise, something right there at edge of pump is leaking, openly? I was just out trying to top off the radiator, and it's spilling out near it, at a weep point I guess. I don't see a hose there, but nothing is coming out of the top weep point on the pump either, it is below, so I am thinking gasket failure, maybe? Really hard to see there, bottom left of pump area.
Bad, because it's a pain to change (time for a timing belt though anyway), but good if it's not my heater core again.
I think my idle might fix up once that is replaced and there's actual coolant in the car. Shame though I just wasted half a gallon of that pricey stuff, thinking it was a slower leak than that.
I probably need to find an OEM clutch cable. I really don't think the one I have is legit. Same box as Beck Arnley, but ultra-cheap feeling plastic end. My old one was metal, I think?
