My '84 242 has sprung a leak in its radiator, And I'm wondering...It's an oem (It says Volvo on it), I have no idea how old it is...would it be worth taking to a shop or should I just buy new? I'm interested in an fcpgroton radiator, a nissens all copper one. does anyone have experience with this? This car is my "truck" and road tripper, and I had planned on doing a radiator, coolant, hoses, and thermostat before next summer...Is there anything else I should do while I'm in there? My dad thinks the water pump, although everything was fine with my car's cooling before it had this leak and lost coolant. Happy Boxing Day!
