Nice Try, My. EZ Lube

As many of you know, I had Mable’s entire radiator replaced last month. She’s been running pretty great every since.

Today I went to get my oil changed at some 15 minute place because it’s close to work and I have a coupon. When I went to pick it up, the fella working there tries to tell me I need my radiator flushed. Ha!

I told him, “funny, I just had the radiator replaced a month ago.”

“A year ago?” he says.

“No, like, 4 weeks ago.”

“Oh well, uh, I used to work at a radiator place, and when they replace them they don’t put in the proper mix of coolant and water; it’s mostly water.”

“Okay, sure, I’ll have that checked out?”

Idiot. No. In fact, I looked at my coolant later this afternoon. It’s full. Completely fine. And as green as Ecto Cooler®.
