Ok, for all my automotive and engineering knowledge, I just don't know the answer to this question.

How can I tell how many rows my radiator is?

I can tell you it's full of crap! White crusty lime, killing my efficiency. I've got a great story to tell about my Waggy and a new to me plow and a ****ted up radiator, and hitting the little red mark on the temp gauge, but I just need the question above answered.

Anyone?

The easiest way to tell the # of rows you have is to remove the radiator-cap when the coolant is cold and look down into the core. You can see how many rows of tubes (3 or 4) from front to back. You may have to drain some of the coolant out in order to see the tops of the tubes.
