Well, the victim in my situation is a Jeep that is only cursed by it's creator's mistakes and is simply fixed by wraping some electrical tape around the water neck for the thermostat housing.

We've only had the truck for about a year, and I've had to flush the system out twice. Then again, the previous owner mixed coolants, many times, blew the head gasket, and eventually the short block. Soooo, I kind of expected to be flushing it a bit.

Another fault by design in my case is the radiator tanks are plastic, and thus so is the filler neck. So, at the moment I'm dealing with a warped plastic filler neck opening not keeping the system pressurized and coolant steaming past the cap.
