Running update (mostly just taking up band width)

After my little spark plug problem, I realized my injectors were not spraying correctly.  Dribble and not the best pattern when they started spraying.  Running cleaner thru them helped some, but they didn't look like the picture in Bentley.  I got some 190E injectors from a list member and I had some extra new injector seals to pit in at the same time.  
  I have always had a hard time getting my injectors out, but yesterday I took them out while the engine was still warm.  Boy was that so much easier!  Each of them came right out with a regular amount of effort.  This will be the method I use from now on.  I also soaked the injectors with the O-rings installed in gas before I installed them.  I seemed to have missed that step every time before.  The car fired up the first crank this morning.  Before It would take about 4 to 6 cranks before it would start. It also much better off idle.
  I also put in a 16v radiator with upper and lower hoses from a donor 16v.  I had thoughts that the temps would be much lower, but they are the same.  The radiator is about 30% bigger than my old one, but I think I'm going to switch back.  Why you ask, just look up the price of the upper hoses for a 16v.   $70 from Potterman!  I'll just go back to my regular size.
