I have a G5 Quad with what I believe to be a gummed up LCS. Work and family and travel for work mean I do not have the time (not to mention, the tools) to rebuild the LCS but I would like to get the G5 working. Is anyone here able to, for a price, able to rebuild the loop? It's a Delphi unit BTW.

I aircooled my quad, g5 dual 2.7 and dual 2.5. Dont miss the lcs.
Hi,
Unfortunately rebuilding the LCS of a G5 isn't something that's predictable or easy to send off for for rebuild. It's not just evaporated coolant but also excessive corrosion in the blocks and radiator (neither are particularly salvageable past this point), failed pumps are another secondary issue. In short you probably need to pull it out and inspect it yourself for failure points before hand.
