Cool!

This topic is actually perfect for a Freaky Friday Fish Fry!

I would suggest either of these options:

One:  replace all of your coolant lines with clear tubing.  You can even do
a case modification on the block so that the water jacket is transparent,
and you can see the flow inside the engine.  Then fill it up with fresh
coolant, and insert about 20-50 live tropical fish in there.  Yellow Tangs
would look good with the blue water! They will circulate throughout the
system then, and you can watch them while you work on your engine!!

or

Two:  Take your 100 gallon pristine tropical fish tank... replace the water
in one liter increments, every month, with blue VW antifreeze.
Eventually.... after about 6 months, you will have created a Vanagon!!

Happy Fryday!

IMPORTANT!!! In order to reply to me, you must have the word "FISH"
somewhere in the subject line of the email.  Otherwise it goes directly in
the trash.
