Expansion Tank vs Whole Cooling System
Hi All-
It's been a long time since I've been active on this forum. I'm turning to you all for your collective wisdom.
Here's my problem. My expansion tank just cracked at 138k miles. I've already replaced the whole cooling system (hoses, tank, thermostat, water pump, pulleys, belts and sensors) at 70k miles.
Do I just replace the expansion tank or do I go all-in and replace the whole system again?
If I replace the whole system, should I replace the water pump as well? (It's a Graf pump with the metal impeller). What about the radiator?
Trying to keep cost down, but I'd hate to replace one thing, only to have the other items fail on me. But, if they don't need to be, why spend the money? Those are the questions going thru my mind at the moment.
Let me know how the Mafia votes!
Thanks all and appreciate any helpful suggestions.
