Mine is in my M-1009 and in the wife's Crown Vic. We replace it when the
strip starts going South...... The only problem that I've had is when I
found out the hard way, after years of driving, that some idiot in the
military motor pool used stop leak in my radiator!!!! I had a small leak
and when I took it to the shop for a cleaning and repair they found the stop
leak. I couldn't believe that the military used this crap! I got my M-1009
right from the military through a dealer that I know and I am positive that
no one else owned it. The title was from the military to my friend and then
to me.

Best Regards,

Ed
