I was talking to my local parts supplier about a new rad, he stated the rad didn't come with the tabs to park the hood in when the hood is open.

Very nice!!!!!!

Try Gaslight Auto Parts out of Urbana Ohio 1.800.242.6491 Part #a-3590-s. Good people I deal with. About 15 miles from my home. Which is great

Over the last month or so, I noticed that for the first start of the day I would have to turn the gav in several turns. I'm thinking I must have turned it alot more than I thought. Car runs great, temps great. Then a week or so the same thing, turn the gav in, many turns. Well yesterday I am...

Really nice looking. Enjoy

Just a guess, any chance there is a gen, or alt, bearing going out/ When I try to find noises, I use a piece of hose held to my ear to track things down.
