I got 17.5 for 37.97 delivered. just search for citric acid. it's also called bath bomb and fizzy powder
oh, and the car STILL will not stay under 100C... this is my second citric flush (man that cleans out everything) and I put in a german Tstat. do they make 160°F / 70°C tstats?

Have you tried a different temp gauge and sender? just a thought.
Thanks for the info above. Hmmmm, 2.2lbs.......
