Overheating 200

posted by  someone claiming to be djriverdance on  Mon Jun 3 05:00 CST 2002 [RELATED]

Last weekend, I simply forced water between the fins of BOTH the radiator and the ac condenser. I made sure (by watching through that small gap) that water was running through.

Drove the car, and it was significantly cooler.

Compressed air does the same thing. NOTE: you don't have to remove the radiator to do this: just the grille, fan, and shroud (two fittings, two screws, four bolts). It was just that simple.
