If it can wait until Monday, I have a spare, still leaking IC. I haven't
had the time to give it a through once over, so I don't know the
condition of the end tanks, nor the core. I just yanked it out (I bought
a used one from Chris Semple) 'cuz I needed the car, like yesterday (last
winter), and my life's been a mess since. So, if you want it, let me
know, make an offer, whatever. Obviously, I'm not getting to it anytime
soon.
