Hi all. My truck blew the timing cover gasket last week on the passenger side right at the water jacket and was spraying coolant. I though this was strange but when I tore it down and took off the timing cover, the gasket surface right at the area that sprang the leak is pitted pretty bad. and also, I found a small crack in the bottom of the cover. So is there a way to repair this? or am I looking at trying to find another cover?

 

nother cover. not hard to find and not that often you see that issue with them. 318 Magnum and 360 magnum take the same cover as the 3.9

 

That's what I figured. I got one oredered from ebay. Truck is just under 240,000 miles on the original motor. This doesn't surprise me lol.
