This weekend I changed out the crap radiator and put the green stuff in.(I still might get a chem flush to get every bit of the orange out but I think its alright). And then got a 180 thermo and changed my power steering pump. All were very easy to do but a little messy. My car runs so good now. This is the best its ran since I bought the car 3 years ago. It runs at 180 all the time and on the highway runs at about 165-170. Thanks everyone who gave me advise over the past few days.

Why put the "green stuff" in when Dex-cool is proven to be less corrosive and longer lasting? Are engines are made to run on Dex, I wouldn't go screwing around with fluids so haphazardly.2002 Black Firebird:<br />A4, Y87, W68, T-tops<br />Best NA ET: 15.16 @ 90<br /> <a href=\"http://members.cardomain.com/darksde02\" target=\"_blank\">http://members.cardomain.com/darksde02</a>Comment
