I'm installing a new radiator today--eeeeeeeeeeeehawwwwwwwwwww. Thanks to M-Chan I've got the "quick method" in my list of how to do's. Maybe I'll get around to flushing power steering fluid If Natazone has something to flush it with.

Well.....my radiator project is on hold. The new radiator top tank is busted from hidden shipping damage. Didn't find it until I had that monster in the hole ready to bolt up. Sucks for me............grrrrrr.
