It's bad when they get old and leak, just like people

This is a radiator for a Honda del Sol and I just bought one.

Well, I ordered it and we expect it to arrive at Honda of Jonesboro Friday morning. It supposedly will take about 90 minutes to install and the whole job is estimated at about $470.

It turns out that the reason my temperature gauge was pegged in the red zone was because almost all of the coolant had leaked out. I suppose I shouldn't complain, considering that the car has nearly 215,000 miles on the odometer.

So the del Sol will sit in our driveway until it goes back to the shop on Friday and whatever to-ing and fro-ing I do will be in the Subaru or on my bike.
