  Subject: Little things on my "new" 68 polara.



  After shaking down my new Polara Wagon, I have a couple of concerns:

  1. Car blows coolant from the overflow tube, although the aftermarket temp 
  guage installed by the previous owner says temp is in the 190 degree area. Whne 
  the previous owner delivered it he said it was a "sticking thermostat." this 
  makes no sense to me as a stuck thermostate would overheat quickly and this one 
  doesn't. Is a bad pressure cap on the radiator more likely the culprit?

  2. Radio no worky. Previous owner said it did work but that it  "died" on the 
  drive halfway down from Northern CA. I checked the fuses, they appear to be 
  good, checked the antenna connections to the radio, also good. I could not 
  trace the wire to the speaker, however, is it behind the glove box? The evening 
  illumination inside the radio still works, if that gives you a clue.

  Any ideas would be appreciated.
