When I open that el cheapo plastic petcock on our radiators, nothing comes out - assuming of course that it is opening. I got another plastic petcock @ AP store. But the damned stock thing in there doesn't screw out. So how are we supposed to pull that sucker out to put a new one in ?
Kinda thinking of that radiator-fan combo set for 3rd Gen's in Summit, but I'm in no hurry to spend $800-1000. Thought I would try to clean out what's in there 1st.
I put in block petcocks when nothing came out the last time I flushed it ~ 25-30 K mi. ago. The car doesn't run hot as long as the outside T is < 85-90°F, but on real hot days, say 90-100°, the temp takes off over 200-220°. How 'bout U guys ?
