Better than the goofy idea I had...


Back in '93 or '94, when I had my van's radiator recored, I had the rad
guys solder a length of thin copper tubing to the right hand brass end
cap of the rad.


The idea was to connect windshield washer line to it and have the fluid
heated. Well it didn't work, I don't think I had a long enough bit of
tubing attached to the rad.

This looks like a good idea. Automatic mode should un-stick those
frozen wipers
or at least scald any feral cats.
