During the course of all this, has anyone ever physically removed the water

Yes I couldn't see any flaws either.

Tell me why the term global warming went into disfavor? In it's place, some
climatologists now use the term climate change. Why?

I don't know what to think. The truth is that my part of the world is getting
colder, not warmer. It is my understanding that warming is responsible for the
climate change as we now call it. Problem is that I don't see any warming but
polar ice caps are melting so how is that explained? And our
. They said they will
pressure test cooling system and also look for head leaks. About $100 for that
service.

Yup, it's NOT fixed. I drove the piss out of it today and it was fine. The
lower rad hose started warming up indicating coolant circulation. No
overheating. Then went to a friend's house and on way back it started again,
temp rising, no heat, the usual. It was a 7 mile trip back home that
I have one in ME but not with me here in MA.

It is a wahler. It is made in Germany.
Should I heat the tstat in boiling water to open it up to facilitate insertion
of copper pipe/shell casing?
What will prevent it from dislodging?

It was no more than 15 degrees out when I was driving so maybe you are right
that coolant is losing heat in radiator prior to returning to engine.
Interesting hypothesis!

Just picked up car from the mechanic. I drive it back about 25 minutes
local inner city driving and some small highway. No overheating. Heat
working fine. Popped hood when arrived home, felt lower radiator
as Jim Cathey's mod, I don't have a shell casing so will be using 3/8
copper pipe. What length is good?

I sure hope it stays that way. I drove the car like I stole it today for a

That would be really weird! I need to test car for a few more days to confirm.

is a good idea. It will help
achieve a more normal engine temp as well as make the problem visible
sooner, if it recurs. Good luck with this.
