found a new one on ebay for a bit cheaper than site sponsors, had a "universal" setup so that it will work in auto or manuals as well as cars with and without the fan switchin the endtank.
I don't recall who the ebay name was but it was a "store" so if you search you should be able to find them.
Since I've owned it my aero has gotten
new heater core,2 years ago) all new coolant hoses (and I mean ALL, this year) new water pump(last year) , new thrermostat (last year), new fan switch, last year) new radiator (this year), new coolant(this year).
All summer I had issues will running WAY up at the red, nothing I could do short of coasting at 50mph would help it come down and even then it was very close to red all the time. Never overheated but with a new radiator it runs like it should, a little hot in traffic but on the highway it's actually a bit below half most of the time.
I say for about 2x the cost of cleaning it just replace the radiator and forget about it. It's not too bad of an install.
