Subject:      Help with coolant system
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"

I've own my 87 GL since new and it now has 211,000 miles on it, new engine now, never replace the radiator and I was wondering if its time to do so because of the slow traffic/hi altitude over heating. The expansion tank when it over heats empties into the overflow tank and exposes the sensor and the red like begins to blink. If I relive the cap on the expansion tank I can get the coolant to suck back the expansion tank. I had to do this all the way home the other day when I went in to hi altitude roads. Any help will be appreciated Dan
