Radiator
Just changed the radiator on my 85 8v yesterday. Pretty easy job.I put
the front on jack stands, because I didn't have anything to fit under
the car(to catch the coolant) since it is lowered. However I noticed the
coolant looking pretty dark, like I probably am getting some oil in
there.Maybe a leak in the head gasket? Haven't noticed any lack of
performance though.Changed some corroded wires running from starter to
alternator while I had all that space to work in. Car idles great now.
