    cooling system overhaul on my 318is

    I plan on replacing the radiator on my 318 along with the water pump and fan clutch. Is there anything else I should replace while I'm in there?

      I'd replace all associated belts, hoses, and gaskets as well.

            And make sure there's plenty of elbow grease.

                  I prefer synth blend for my blinker fluid.

                  If you're going to have the car all apart, might as well check your muffler bearings. They should probably need replacing sometime anyway.

                        I'd put an electric fan on the radiator instead of replacing the fan clutch. Money better spent.
