1991 740T Cooling trouble 700 1991

Please help me out here guy's and gal's. 2 months ago I bought a 91 740T and was in love. "Christine" has a temper I didn't know about.....Don't they all.

"Christine" had a small crack in her reservoir tank, I bought her a new one from a reseller and the 3 times that I drove her, she literally blew her top. The tank cap was found in different places under the hood each time. So, I went the dealer and bought a factory tank and a new cap. After the install things seemed fine. I drove her a couple of days and I noticed a "slight" hiss, very faint coming from the tank.

Today, "Christine" decided she has had enough with me, the radiator blew to bits. Is she worth fixing? She has 123k on the clock. I paid 3200 for her. So I have the cooling problem, she looses the air movement through the vents under acceleration, and no air conditioning. I think that’s about it.

Your thoughts??

Rick
