[DML] Re: Cooling Problem

["Dave Swingle" <swingle@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

This is a very good point to make. The original DeLorean radiator is a 
nice piece of work - very efficient, very tiny passages, lots of tiny 
fins. Put one next to the common aftermarket part and you'll see what I 
mean. My bet is that the OEM Delorean radiator has about the same 
capacity as the aftermarket three-core unit that is widely sold. 

The downside is that, after 25 years of dubious maintenance and lack of 
flushes, it's probably plugged somewhat. If it's not leaking yet it 
will be, just consider this normal maintenance.
