Re: Truck should run alot better.......

Air filter is letting dirt by.
Answer this: is the radiator/engine coolant the "cooling" fluid for that intercooler on L's and Cobras???

I want to say yes to that Matt, but I am not 100% sure, cause im thinking there is another resivoir over on the right hand side of the engine bay for some type of coolant.

Re: Truck should run alot better.......

I remember reading somewhere on corral awhile back about the coating coming off the rotors on the lightnings, but thats about it. Don't know if its serious or not but seems to be a common problem.
