Condenser 850

Hi Klaus, from steamy Boston,

What's the book time for replacing the radiator? There should be a different time for your first time at it and later when you know what to do.
I lost a little torx bit that I was swinging with a 1/4" ratchet wrench.
some of those screws demand just the right tool. A stubby swivel socket will
make you happy when bolting up the condenser to the radiator, can't get on it
with ordinary sockets or wobblers.

The condenser looks nasty but is OK. I just recharged a little bit and the A/C
is working great. I lost most of the coolant in the expansion tank on a short errand, maybe the engine burped out some air and grabbed that coolant?
I'll keep an eye on it.

The PO lost the splash shield under the radiator. I sense that's a good part to put back on. who's got em? besides the junk yards?

Go Bruins!

Bill
