I installed a new radiator this morning, the car tended to run warm with the AC load in the summer.

What a dramatic difference, I can hold my hand on the return hose and not get burned.

I took a sawsall to the old radiator, the fluid passages actually looked good, but the fins were completely filled with bug remains, road dirt, etc. In hindsight, I propably could have tried just reverse power washing the old unit, and reinstalling. Its at least 10 years , and still leak tight
