Re: Cooling tanks

Welcome. You posted in the Suspension/Brakes section. I suggest you post in the 3rd Gen/L98 Engine section to get the best replies.

Re: Cooling tanks

I used to have an 85 firebird, so I know what you are refering to. They dry out over time. Yeah, even if there is water/coolant in them. It happens.
