I was the only one there while they were doing my Blazer. I got to ask plenty of questions and watch. They even recomended replacing the stat right away. Cost for the power flush was 100USD. If you haven't had this done in a long time or ever, then this is a good place to start troubleshooting.
Yea i'll deff get that done once i get on brake from college, I bought the car at about 96,000 on it and now its got about 112,000 i already rebuilt the tranny, and i keep up on oil changes, just need a good coolant flush and i think i'll be doing good. Yea a mechanic i became buddies with told me to only get stant's as well Thanx for the advice
