What's funny is I left it parked the last couple of days, and I think the old one started working, but then I noticed it was smoking hot to the touch, and out it came. Could be just me, but wipers, door locks all seem to be crisp when operated. Hopefully this week I will have time to replace my belt, thermostat and upper radiator hose.

Definitely looking for better quality and higher output would be a plus.
