Re: 12th-13th sept.
Pulled my fan clutch apart and re-filled with silicon, easy to do and should be done every 100,000ks so Im informed.
The old silicon was almost non existent and was very thick and burnt looking
New tube was $31 from BNT
Took a bit to flush out as nothing really dissolves silicon.
Flushed radiator while at at.

took out my old rotten radiator and replaced it with a shiny new one flushed the entire system while i was at it. then i bogged up some holes where the arieal used to live and dealt to some minor surface rust.

Best place to get the Toyota stuff is Australia - $11.80 per 18ml bottle, I bought 6 when I was there recently.
