PSST - they're all the same.

Now if the station's tanks are bad or leaking water in, that could cause bad stuff to happen

Sad part is you're right, I've seen the same truck go to several stations. However something went array with a Mobil by me cause back in the day my jeep loved their gas but they did something wrong cause using their gas affects my Total miles it's like it buns faster than the Hess by me.

Oh and to be on topic I drove in two hours of traffic on the BQE to get home. My poor girls fluids musta been roasting. She's restring now,

While everything was off and out, my buddy Tim suggested I get a 160 degree thermostat, and we also noticed the serp belt was old looking, so, another trip to the parts store. Putting the tranny line back on the new radiators' fitting was no easy task either. Thank god I had some plumbers emory paper...took three or four times of good buffs to remove just enough material from the brass fitting and with the help of some pliers rocking the hose fitting to work it on the radiator fitting. Then bolt it all back together. This would have been a 2 hours tops job, if I had everything I needed to begin with.

All done! runs 20 degrees cooler!
mine loves the taste of radiator .. shes on here forth .. first it hit a guard rail and sprung a leak .. then the bad water pump (pic at the bottom) which never leaked made it eat the 2nd .. then a bad fan clutch ate the third .. now were on the forth .. no complaints yet
the old water pump.
