An update on the oil.
The 3000cs and 6000cs are available at $17 a bottle.
The 10000cs is and has been on back order for a long time and could take weeks/months to get.
I am going with the 6000cs.

Roger, I already flushed and used a 3000 psi pressure washer in the fins of the condensor and radiator. I pulled about three big hand fuls of **** from in front of the radiator.

I have taken out the Aux fan and started to clean out the pile of s**t between the condenser and the rad. I am then going to flush the system and rad.
Also going to blow the crud out of the fins of the rad and condenser.

Wally,
I am trying to get the 10000cs oil and will do the proceedure.
I will report on my findings.

Thanks,
Roger

Update - tested the thermostat and it works fine but I am going to replace it with a 75C one as well as a 75C switch.
