I feel sorry for you! If at all possible take the rad out, you will thank yourself. Be sure to make a write up.

Not a hard job at all. Probably the worst part is taking the clutch fan off.

Easy fix! Good luck to ya, and they're all right, the fan is a PITA to get off. Just take your time, and keep the fan out of the radiator fins! (Almost impossible )

Looking forward to this one so I can show my wife. Bet she hasn't pumped gas in 30 some years. Had to pump gas on the way back from the hospital after heart surgery. She claimed it was good therapy to get up and walk around, but I recognized it as her way to get out of pumping the gas. Well she at least drove me home.
