    Bender, I presume thats your daughter in the sig?...

    anyway, I had always thought the spring (since it contains the copper thingy) would be sitting in the coolant and not
    facing the sky....

    Hmmm....

    I was going to do this today and ran out of time.
    I think I will just have the Petro do it for me on my next visit....

    My luck I will get into something and be stuck in a bad way-

    I usually find the truckstops screw up every job more than I can imagine, so I do it all my self.
    I have changed my out in the lot at a TA.
    Only problem I had was getting the antifreeze to cool down enough to get into jugs.

    I dont have this problem with my local Petro.
    I deal with the Manager and one specific tech for anything i need and they do it right and right the 1st time.
    ..its just that I prefer to do things on my own, when I can...
