well I wasn't completely sure, again I knew I needed a rad so it's been a combo of things, and the last time the headgasket went, not the HEAD, it didn't have any overheating problems. I finally have the money to do it so it's going to be done next week.

which is more than a tune up fyi.

While your @ it might as well flush out the rad. I hear keeping the same old antifreeze could turn acidic after a while without changing.

I did, and it gets changed constantly since I've been trying to figure out the cooling issue and for awhile changing the coolant every month or so was working. Problem is I used to just add more water.

I ran the flush where you put the flush and water and drive 300 - 600 km. Btw don't do it on the hwy... I found that out. Figured it would be ok but DAMN! I also added a quick flush to I can plug a garden hose into it and walla flush system lol
