My SV appears to be running a little on the toasty side. I pulled the
thermostat and the temp does not go down at all. I determined from this
and a visual inspection of the inerds of my radiator that my next step
should be to clean out the cooling system. I purchased some radiator
cleaner from NAPA that say it disolves rust and scale. You put it in the
car, let it idle for 30 minutes, then flush. It has no acid in it. (It has
TSP - trisodium phosphate, and something bisulphate). It only cost about 3
bucks. If this does not do the job I am going to take it to the radiator
shop and have it rotted (rodded?) out. I will post the results of this
experiment after I perfrom the procedure. BUT If anyone knows a any reason
why I should not do this, please speak now or forever hold your peace.
Thanks,
Chris
