Slobber Tube Fixed The Right Way!

[Pete Masterson]

Bumpersbird,

Please do keep us posted. I, too, had a similar experience -- but I
replaced the radiator core with a newer, more efficient design.
Cooling is much better... but, as you say, the source of the problem
remains.

Where did you get the Racor system? Did you install it yourself and,
if so, how difficult is the installation?

Thanks -- this may just be the solution I'm looking for. (Of course,
it means yet another filter to carry along....<sigh>).
