[W126 Coupe] Off topic..... again

[Jay Hirsch]

Get a can of  very fine  ground pepper and pour the can in to  
radiator, run the engine for  twenty minutes with the  heat on and  
then twenty minutes with the  a/c on.  Pepper will not hurt anything,  
if it does not work no harm done   Pepper does not dissolve...ever.
