    M10b18 just keeps going and going

    I got a cracked radiator that I tried fixing with jb weld since it happened right before autox weekend. Today it started leaking again and then overheated past 3/4 line, was starting to get into the red too. Got home, and it lost almost 1 gallon of water (about this much went in).

    Didn't blow a gasket though. :o

    Wired my electrical fan for full speed instead of half speed, now it's at less than 1/2. Hopefully will have the radiator replaced this week with a 325i rad.

      Won a good / used 325i radiator on ebay for $0.99, local pick-up, cheapest part yet . came with the temp sensor, but I just realized i'll need to add 325i overfill tank and all now won't I ?
