Me Again,
Wanted to also say thanks on this issue.  From what everyone had told me and
from what I have diagnosed  here's what I have on order so hopefully no
problems for a long time once I'm done:  new Rad, Thermostat, fan switch,
water pump, head gaskets (still got to call b.bob on those) and some other
stuff just to make this a long week project...    Anybody know if it makes
sense to replace the Ballast Resistor just for more insurance it's only like
another $30.   Well the bus goes under the knife tomorrow morning at 10am
(car talk time)  I'm sure I'll be posting some more questions as this is my
first stab at heads on a waterboxer.

Cheers,

Kevin
