I'm rebuilding my cooling system right now....a few observations:

* Check the vacuum hoses on the distribution "tree" for the fuel injectors. Several of my hoses were cracked at each end. I used Goodyear 7.8mm fuel/emission hose from Autozone to replace the four hoses.




*I have 96K miles on my car and the coolant block and head manifold were both in good condition. Water pump had a tiny bit of play in it, but looked to be in good shape too.
*Removing the throttle and cruise cable were the biggest PITA so far, followed closely by the wiring harness "squid". Not looking forward to reinstalling the lower manifold / wiring harness and installing all the connectors and mounting hardware.
