Did my (hopefully) final flush of the cooling system after giving Thermocure a try. Seems like good stuff. Went from Chinese sewer water to pretty clear distilled so I dumped that and the 50/50 went in.

Yup... sometimes a little longer. Got about 245+/-k on mine and the bendix is going bad. That reminds me, I really should get another one before it leaves me stranded.

I grew up in Central Texas, so compared to that and Florida, no South Dakota does not get that hot. It does get warm enough though that I wanted A/C.
Yeah I hear ya. Mine will cool down really well. But with my tint being faded and the blower not cranking out much air, it ends up heating up not being as cool by the time it gets to me... forget about the back seat.

Graduated college this morning as well.
