Is it your diesel truck or other vehicle? Are you in the hills
between Maneadero and Santo Tomas?
I am wondering if your radiator has those plastic tanks.
You could solder the old brass ones. The newer ones
usually leak from the gaskets on the plastic tanks whern the thermostat goes bad and the heat runs up. Also the cores
are ussually aluminum and not brass. We had a list going
for mechanics up and down the peninsula. Check it to see
whoe is recommended.

Does anyone know which direction BW was heading? North or South?
My mechanic will be at my house at 8 AM and we can be with him in no time.

I have a feeling he's bedded down for the night. Radiator problems generally arn't instantly lethal so he may have had some time to find a safe
place for the night. Hope so anyway.
I wonder how he managed to post?
Anyway, Vicente will be here early and we can do pretty much whatever is needed.
Let me know, Terry, if you need us.
Hope we beat the weather they're talking about.

I don't believe he's north coming south on the toll road. There's roving tow trucks out there.
He could have cooked the radiator coming up the Santo Tomas grade.
So.....fifteen miles from Ensenada......well...no sense in guessing. We just wait.

I know for sure they were coming south.
We were expecting to see them Friday morning sometime.
I hope they got the help they needed.

Thanks. Do you think they would have come through Tecate?
Where were they coming from?

Saw that.
Well....lessee....15 miles out the Tecate Road would put them right in front of the fireplace in Mustafa's, San Antonio de Las Minas.
I'm guessin they're alright.
