Yes sir!

 

thanks i appreciate it.

ordered the block heater element from genos garage.
ordered a cord to.. not that i need it.. but.. figured hey.. ill toss it inthe glove box.. ya never know.

 

Good deal. It never hurts to have a spare cord!

 

pretty much my thoughts..

did you drain the coolant when you replaced yours? if so do you know roughly how much you needed to refill.. i cant imagine ill need all of the capacity.

 

Well, I have a rather large "mechanic's syringe" that I used to suck all of the coolant out of the radiator, and transfered it to a large clean "Home Depot" plastic bucket. I guess you could also just drain the radiator through the drain valve. My yard was rather muddy and I didnt want to get under my truck to open the valve, so I did it with that syringe gizmo.

Its also a good time to flush and change the coolant and t-stat while your at it.......if it needs it tho.

 

coolant looks fresh. and tstat works just fine. although i did consider doing it all at once. just .. to be done with it.

hmm i do have a mecanics syringe / fluid transfer pump...

 

Yep. That thing...........
