running temps are down now, after a coolant flush and installing a fan shroud (which had been absent up to this point), so that's a relief. no more heating up at speed, no more heating up while sitting in traffic!
i repaired the window regulator issue with some creative machining after the previous post in this thread, but now the window has just decided it doesnt want to go up more than half way. found that napa sells a replacement regulator for an okay price, so unless someone thinks they're bad regulators i'll probably go ahead and put a new one.
not much else to report, odometer is 251,255 miles as of today. passed the quarter million mile mark!
the offending voltage regulator

went to get fuel today, and car wouldn't start back up! i had noticed the gas gauge was reading nothing at all, so i should have realized that meant i had no voltage in the system. was able to push and bump start it and get to work, where i diagnosed it as a charging system issue. this makes sense as the battery light had flicked on a couple times recently. pulled the voltage regulator and as expected, the brushes are almost totally worn away. picked up a brand new battery as the one had been deeply discharged (was reading 6.6v at idle). waiting for autozone to get my regulator in and then should be installing it after work along with the new battery.
