Scootaloo's Coolant Woes!

[Thymeclock]

I actually inspected the gasket, and there is a nice groove heat formed into it; but I believe my cap had an Internal Failure, because as soon as I removed the gasket, half of the internal guts flew apart! and I'll Post in the How To Section what's inside the cap.

Just out of curiosity, how many miles are on it?

about 67K on it.

about 67K on it.

That probably matters. Parts are now made cheaper and of poorer materials - not meant to be as durable as they once were.

Planned obsolescence + the progressive mentality: Throw it out and buy a new one.

Mine only has about 25K. This probably is a factor in predicting when it will fail.
