Well, after reading many horror stories about dishonest mechanics and having it happen to me once already, I have decided to only send it in for major things. TOday, I am replacing all of my radiator hoses since they are soft and replkacing the coolant. How to I "flush" the coolant system. Also, my radiator cap haas been quite hard to find. My coolant resivor is full of what looks like water so I think it needs to be changed. If I can manage, I would also like to drain the brake fluid. ANy suggestions?
