Ken, In the dmcnews tech section is a how to on how to flush the rad. It is very straight forward and easy to do. I just had to do this while i was replacing my coolant hoses. Only thing i did not do was to removed the engine block drains, they did not want to budge, and was too worried about stripping them out. So just skip over it, and flush it for just a little bit longer. If you have the orgional radiator be very, very and i use the word again VERY gentle ont he plastic fittings on it. The price from the shop sounds about right, but most shops won't cover parts from being damaged on the car anyway, so why not try it. Replace your thermostat while your at it. - Shain #10140 --- In dmcnews@xxxx, "Digital Devices" <delorean@xxxx> wrote: > Ok .. i just got a quote from a local garage for a rad flush .. $200 > > something sounds VERY strange > > i was told .. their rad flush machine will not accomodate a DeLorean and > that they would have to REMOTE EVERY HOSE AND TUBE connecting to the rad > >
