Re: Radiator/Coolant flush/replacement
 

I got my ear pinned back once when I was caught spray painting a
radiator. I was explained to me that paint, even a thin layer held the heat
in. And in the old days my Fords ran on the razors' edge, anyway.

Re: Radiator/Coolant flush/replacement
 

The new green claims 5 years, I wouldn't trust it past 4 years but maybe
that is just me.

The new engines are full of new metals though, perhaps that is the problem.

There are more than one, incompatible formulas now, and the price of coolant
has gone through the roof too. That doesn't help much. If your car boils
over in the Arizona desert, because of neglected hoses, there's just no
telling what the nearest repair shoppe is going to have in stock.

I'm using the G-05 now. I like the cool clear color. I put Honda Genuine
Coolant (blue) in the Hondas, and Walmart diabetic monkey piss in the
Suburban.
