[DML] Re: Otterstat Popped Out While Driving

["trdstne71" <trdstne71@xxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks - it's a bottom switch.  Unfortunatly I don't have any kind 
of workshop and the car has an aftermarket BAE Turbo installed.  The 
turbo is right in the way making access to the otterstat somewhat 
difficult.  That plus the fact that I had never done this before, I 
ended up pulling the whole otterstat out instead of just the leads.  
Next time I'll know better...  As far as leaks, I recently had all 
the cooling system tubes replaced so it would be depressing if that 
were the cause. :(
