Put my inspection camera in the right 3/4" heater hose connection. It's the top right hose connection of the water pump. Rotated the pump shaft while counting the 6 blades inside. Just wasn't happy till I looked for myself. Bob Dunahugh 78 Royale

Ran the test below. Then started to pull the radiator. 90 minutes. Done. It was mentally harder to do then doing it. Cutting the radiator should make it simpler to put it in. Bob Dunahugh 78 Royale

I don’t think it’s a good idea to cut the radiator. Cutting the support might help though. :)

I’m sure that most of us were bright enough to know that.
