Yes, summer is here (finally!) and we can have the annual overheating and air conditioning discussions; in the winter we can talk about snow tires, hard starting, and blowing oil cooler O-rings.
Count me in for the overheating! (I'll be getting my pyrometer in the mail any day now so I can see what's going on with my system.) So, 500g of Citric Acid in 1 gallon of water will do... what? (I'm not doubting, just asking) Does the water come out all icky and black or what? I was trying to figure out a quantitative way of measuring how clogged a radiator is. The only thing I could come up with was filling a radiator with water, then dumping it out and seeing how long it takes. Anyone have a better idea?
