Re: really dumb question about my new 4kcsq.

<< My "new" '86 4kcsq has a minor radiator leak, I plan on replacing it in the
 near future, but I have been living with it for now. Last night, I go out to
 check the level of the fluids in the radiator and was going to top them off
 if needed. I open the hood, and where I expect to see a radiator cap, there
 is nothing!
 
 How exactly do I add water/antifreeze to the radiator? I know, it's pretty
 pathetic that I can't figure this out, but I really didn't see where I could
 do it. Unless I add the fluid to the radiator reservoir bottle, but isn't
 that for over flow? Please enlighten me on this subject, I feel pretty dumb
 right now.
 That's the place! There is a fill line for minimum level.

 BTW, after cleaning the console window switches, I got 3 of the windows to
 work (although one will go down, but not back up, at least not right away).
 The 4th window will probably need a new regulator, but that can wait. I also
 got the new bulbs to illumintate my instrament panel, I can now see my
 speedometer at night. I may try the odometer this weekend.

Before you count out the last window, try bypassing the switch by jumping the
terminals. Got my window to work this way. I also thought I was in the market
for a regulator, but was pleasantly surprised. Has been working for three
months now - lubed it well cause it moves a little slow. Hope it continues to
work for me!

If you need help with odometer repair just holler. Lots of guys on the list
BTDT.

Good Luck,
