Dear John, Joel & other listees who responded to my delimam,

Thanks for all the tips! The dealer (for $58.00) diagonosed the coolant sensor
which I alsready suggested as a result of listees suggestions.  He said it was
the sensor AND said I needed a new Head Gasket ($900.00!)  I had the heads
rebuilt 25K ago at another shop.  I think not.  I drove to the shop that did
my heads and put it on the hoist and it was dry as a bone!  I had that shop
order me a sensor and change the belts to give them a little more business
since that was due.

Thanks for the advice
Long live the list
