Its not my rad. Its a little black cylinder thing along side my engine. On the pass. side under the altenator. I dont know what it is called. If anyone knows then name of it thanx. It has 3 hoses connected to it. Guess a trip to the bone yard is in the near very near future. When I turn my car off it boils. But never over heats on me. I think its time for a 160 thermo myself.

Yeah I found out Autozone was more money then O'Reily. By the way get new hoses and BUY screw clamps because the old ones break and then you have to cut everything to get them off.
