Have they?? Have they ever gone bad on you? How many times??? I've had 1 or
2 in 10 years of coolant replacement, and those 2 were because of folded
gaskets from NAP, of course Boss Lady ran a staple thru them too...  :-{

| I'm a little cheaper than that, (under $200) but agree with you on not
| doing it in the home.  To many starving lawyers.
|
| Takes me about two hours, start to finish, to do two tubes.  Customer
| thinks you are charging $100 per hour, plus the service call.  Like you,
| I want it in the shop where I can check it for at least 24 hours for
| leaks and have everything at hand if something goes wrong.  Like a
| midwife delivering a baby at home.  If complications develop, things can
| get nasty.
