My 84 240 had the half plastic, half steel and all bad radiator. The fins were collapsing and rust was clogging it up and it leaked. By luck I had an 81 240 all metal with copper/aluminum fins. I cleaned it out and it works great. The car even runs cooler. I think 78-81's use these radiators. They seem to be better built.
