Title: What's the pink stuff?
Post by: blown motor on December 11, 2020, 01:23:00 PM
Just wondering what the pink stuff would be.

Pepto bismol?

Is this on the Charger?  What color is the coolant?  Some newer Chrysler products use pink coolant.  It looks like that when it leaks and dries.

It is on the Charger. Coolant is green. Whatever it is it's completely out of context with anything else on the car. There's one screw head on the other side that has it too.

Yep, that'd be my guess as well. The old RM coarse compound used to be pink like that. OR, Murray's birthday cake fell into the engine bay and they didn't get all the icing licked off cleanly!  :wave:

This or assembly verification. At my work, when we have assembly jobs, there is usually a paint pen we use to mark any fastener that requires a torque spec and immediately after its torqued, the paint goes on.

But it's only in three spots on the whole car and the car was restored so it's not a factory mark.

Reconditioning cream??!! Murray, buy a big jug of it and we can slather it on and see if it works- on our bodies that is. Your car is already shiny enough.  :crazytalk:

I didn't mean to imply it was factory. Since your car is restored, I was thinking it had been done by the restoration shop. However, since we have the polishing cream presented here, that is the more  likely culprit.
