I went to a car show on Saturday and asked a Radiator vendor about having mine boiled out. Since it doesn't leak and runs cool. (I'm going to replace my cooling system this spring...all original w/92k miles). He said that boiling out a copper radiator is very bad. The acids to more harm then good. He said either replace it, re-core it, or leave it alone. I said since it's original, I'll have it re-cored with a Modine unit. Has anyone heard of this...I thought boiling was safe? I just don't want to drive around this summer with a 92K mile / 25 years old cooling system.
