Did or can they ascertain the stuff clogging up your radiator?? Barr's leaks perhaps?? ---------- From: Joseph Cortney[SMTP:jcortney@bizcenters.com] Sent: Thursday, July 23, 1998 4:20 PM To: Sean Stanley; xj-s@jag-lovers.org Subject: Re: [xj-s] The ubuiquitous overheating problem Sean, I've had EXACTLY the same symptoms. On the advice of everyone here on the list, mine is now in the shop having the radiator rodded out. I just got the results. As everyone here lead me to believe, I had between 30% - 40% blockage on my 91. While it was there, I'm having every hose that carry's water changed.
