Hi everyone !

I just feel like to complaining a bit....just had my intake gasket blown...what a pain..To cold here to fix it myself and my rad blew a month ago !! had to get it fixed too!! gasket cost $485 and the rad $749 part and labor..I consider it not too costly because I know my mechanic ( friend) I dont even want to know how much it would have cost at the dealer.. anyway it runs alot better now then it used too. and it consums less oil too cause of the intake tigher now then it use too. Just came bask from Quebec city which is about 300 miles both ways and got 22miles/gallon..!! that 5 more then I use to get !! so I`m basicly I`m happy even dough it`s costing more to run ( gas) this nice Ex. !! :o)
 






$749.00 seems high for a radiator replacement.

The radiator alone for my 91 is only 200 tops.

Oh that must be Canadian dollars, didn't see that first time around so it may be okay.
