clutch is working good, replaced the old junky feed line from the brake fluid res to the clutch master (it was sucking some air in after the cylinder replacements).

also discovered the brake master cylinder appears to be leaking a bit, so a new brake master cylinder and new brake booster are probably in the list of stuff to replace soon.

car seems to be running a little warmer than i'd like, flushed it out with plain water and refilled with zerex g-05. will look into other flushing procedures and whether a new radiator and/or electric fan conversion might be prudent.

one thing that concerns me is i did the oil filler cap thing - loosened it at idle, and it jumps around quite a bit. anyone care to chime in on whether that means the engine is about to be dusted?

My car is also running warm. If you take a look at diesel giants pictorial. He uses a mercedes branded citric powder. But I'm sure you can get the regular stuff from the grocery store and that will work the same. You can even get it on amazon for about $6. also works for other things

The citric acid should help to dissolve any build up since its really an acid. Run that through the engine a few times flush with clean water and top off with coolant, let all the air bleed out.

Im also looking for an electric fan. From what everyone is saying its a well worth upgrade regardless if you are overheating or not.

A decent fan off amazon (Sorry, I have prime membership so i always go to amazon first) is about $140 with the relay and all the works.
