Some CI cooking for supper.

I was hungy for stuffed peppers, so I made some in some HUGE peppers!

Well........ turns out my thermostat was not stuck closed, but rather the entire radiator was stuck closed not allowing coolant flow. I took a thin piece of metal and started breaking up the gunk in the top of the cores and I might as well have turned a sprinkler on. The gunk that was stopping it up from flowing was also stopping it up from leaking as well lol.

You can see the tubes that are empty, at least 4 were leaking bad somewhere down lower and a few other were seeping. Bit the bullet and got a new core on the way, thankfully these radiators bolt together and I do not need to take it to a shop. got 5 days to get it back together for the ride coming up Saturday.
