<html><div style='background-color:'><DIV></DIV> <DIV></DIV> <DIV>WoW! thanks for all the great responses to my request for advice. You might be interested to know that I brought the van to my local vw mechanic yesterday after really warming up the car, and we did a sniffer test (exhaust gas in the coolant) and it came up negative. Also he pulled the plugs and saw no sign of coolant buildup. I think Ken Wilfey (and others) might be right in their assumption that there is sludge in the radiator. I will let you all know what I find!</DIV> <DIV>Thanks very much.</DIV> <DIV>James Demer, Portland Maine</DIV> <DIV>1986 syncro westy</DIV> <DIV></DIV> <DIV></DIV> <DIV></DIV> <DIV></DIV> <DIV></DIV></div><br clear=all><hr>MSN Photos is the easiest way to share and print your photos: <a href='http://g.msn.com/1HM305401/15'>Click Here</a><br></html> |
