Also, my car runs too warm. I changed t-stat. I used h-duty radiator cleaner. Neither helped. Radiator looks good, cosmetically. I was told that the likely solution is to have it re-cored. Do you agree?


I agree, to an extent. I'd take it to a radiator shop and have them clean it and backflush it first. If it doesn't leak and has good flow there's no reason to recore it. Recoring a radiator is expensive, I'm paying upwards of $700 to have my '48 radiator recored. Do that as a LAST resort, but have them clean it first.
