    Keep min mind too..If Toth doesn't stock it as a regular product from their vendors, Proce could go up a tad, But that's really up there.

    They had one, but they wanted $38 more than JX....in any case, I didn't end up needing one, but will probably change it out next year just in case.....

    Seems ACERT parts are a lot more expensive than 3406, c12, c13, c15 and c16 parts!

    About 6 weeks.
     
  9. Do you have any gremlins yet?

    Squeaks?
    Loss of air?
    Dash gauges not working?

    Nope, but then again this was my friends truck, year before he sold it he did a #### ton of updates and maintenance on it. Still it's an old truck, so I still expect some gremlins to come!

    I believe it was miss diagnosed from the beginning.

    A radiator with the fins getting old and delicate is not going to cause an immediate overheat.

    It would be gradual and most likely on a pull.

    I believe your problem all along was the thermostat.
