[MR2] Radiator change

[Chris S]

mine was leaking at the upper left corner at the seam.  Brass solder, i 
think, and a thorough cleansing and it worked fine..still working, so don't 
jinx it.

my orings have always been fine, though, hahah.  i replaced them anyway bc i 
don't like crawling under there, but as far as R&R jobs go on the mr2..this 
was a piece of cake after you drain all the coolant.
