    I read somewhere a while ago that if you're removing it to replace it, one of the best ways is to break it to pieces.

    Wife's car dies at idle

    It was the $400 idle air control sensor which I got from the junkyard for 75 bucks along with the throttle body, because of course they wouldn't sell me just a sensor.

    Which thermostat for my needs?

    OK, I live in SoCal and don't use my car all that much. My radiator finally started leaking all over and I'm replacing the rad, upper and lower hoses and thermostat. Which one should I use? BTW, I scored new 3 row radiator for 80 bucks! Thanks in advance, Phil.
