Never cleaned it. - I actually found my Coolant Cleaning stuff/flush stuff. And I brought that with me. Don't know what all it intalls but at least i have it if need be.


My current Radiator has 164K miles on it. - But I took my aircompressor and lightly blew air through the fins so that the junk got blown out (did that when I was first trying to figure out the problem?)

I am planning on buying a fluidyne shortly - but it's just a matter of Time & Money when that happens?

I was thinking that the Gunk might be from something that's clogging the system?

The only problem would be where would that be possible? and what possibly could it be?

I know we had problems with my Heater core when we first assembled the car. Where the coolant would leak into the car.

but we found out it was coming from the lines that go into the fire wall.... They attachement points weren't round so when we put the hose's on there the clamps weren't creating a good seal. So we had to take the hose's off and round out them Heater Core lines. After that I haven't had coolant leak into the car or from that area since.


The only other things I've changed in my set up is the Magnus SMI. I had to lengthen the Lines that go to the TB and I'm also now running a 1G TB instead of a 2G one?

Otherwise I can't think of anything else that's been changed since this motor was in my GS-T that pertains to coolant system?

A/C's gone?
