Guys,
I have a '96 Ti base w/140K. I'm the original owner. Other than spirited cornering, I'm pretty easy on the old goat. I am not mechanically gifted. I had the t-stat replaced 3 years ago and the water pump almost 1 year ago. Other than those items, the radiator system is original. The radiator has been flushed 2-3 times. Am I pushing the limit on the radiator? If not, should I just have all the hoses/connectors replaced?

Thanks.
