Radiator removal 94pt 8v92

Radiator ROD is what it is...push a rod through each tube, and flow/pressure test after. Anyone doing less is taking your money.

Greg, tell me if I am wrong but I don't
think radiator shops actually "rod" the radiator. I think it is
all done with chemicals now.

Radiator rodding quote $650.00 stewarts industrial
radiator. Owner

Wally shop is one mile from CCW Riverside. recore is over two grand.

My rad is 60% blocked with rust-mud and only giving 10% of its

ability (claim two shops) I used Stewart because they came

recomended by several sources and his rodding price was $400 cheaper

than one other shop. Stewart tech and owner Wally asked me to bring

in the transmission cooler for a flow test and look. He ex-plained

that if the trans cooler is blocked (trans cooler is placed after

rad exit)it wont allow good flow and the rad will get backed up

also. Wally claimed that the OEM product is way good quality and

most issues requiring recore of that brand are from exterior

degrading (salt and road hazzard).



I dropped the trans cooler and will post pics of the guts. looks

like a catalitic converter, 400 journals.
