I haven't even looked under the HOOD of one yet, but I just got a call from a friend who has a friend that needs one changed. Any help or opinions would be mucho appreciated. Karma has no menu.

I'd recommend pulling the radiator core support and front fascia (It just bolts on with a couple screws). so you can pull it straight forward instead of up and over. Note that I am not a heavy line tech, just an electrical guy who does the occasional heavy line job. The Dusty W-100 :: Rebuilding the Cordoba :: Building a Stroker 360 :: DustySpace
