Subject:Path of coolant in radiator
From:tabe johnson

What path does the coolant take when going through
the radiator?

I KNOW the coolant doesn't just go in one side
and out the other, because both the inlet and
the outlet are on the same side!  So - what
path does the coolant take?

I THINK (and I'm only guessing) the coolant
enters at the bottom right, (front is front)
goes along the bottom half of the radiator to
the left, goes up, goes along the top half of
the radiator to the right, then goes down and
exits again at the bottom right.  Anyone?
Beuller?  Anyone?
