Many thanks to my Wazoo brothers for getting me out of a jam with my overheating stock radiator. After pulling things apart, it was clear that the problem was 23 years of debris stuck in the radiator. It was replaced with a new DeWitts radiator which fit with no or let's say just minor modifications (cut out a 1/2" section of the rubber tab in the bottom mounting area). Jim, Scott, Ed, Yun, Kevin and Bob did an outstanding job getting this done and I am very grateful. Now bring on the high temps, no worries!
Jim starts pulling out leaves but there was a lot of very fine grit stuck in the radiator as well. You can see the fine size that we started to shake out, it just kept coming out. Not worth the effort to try to clean the original, just replace with new technology. The new hoses and clamps from Jerry's are very good quality but a couple were a real PIA to fit onto the new radiator. It took a lot of muscle, grease and a few cigars to reduce stress but finally got them all in place. What a great group of guys.
