Long time later they started again, put in another third. Long time later, the third third. It was still holding up when I had the engine rebuilt with something like 185k miles on it -- probably 50,000 with the stuff in the system. No radiator troubles so far, though as I said it doesn't get all that hot in New England. david David Beierl - Providence, RI http://pws.prserv.net/synergy/Vanagon/ '84 Westy "Dutiful Passage" '85 GL "Poor Relation" |
