Well as some of you know I finally got that '88 yesterday that I was talking about..
Anyway, I got it started up today at my house and let it run to check things out..Tempature goes up quite quick, and it goes almost to 3/4's untill the fan finally kicks on, i was scared that the motor was shot...As I was watching the fan i noticed some smoke comming from the rad...I felt the rad and it was like falling appart...Its all crispy..guess its time to ditch that stuipd 1Core Rad...
What do you guys reccomend? If this is a solid car overall im going to dump money in to it, so buying the top of the line radiator in there w/o getting it too cool would be great..I priced a 'stock-replacement' for it at pepboys and it was 85 bux, but it was teh same 2core rad thats in my '93..and I'm having a heating problem in that..
Thanks,
Mike
