check the spark plug grommet for oil leaking into the cylinder head.

its a 98 ex with a 00 si motor. seems like the radiator is hot just going
a few blocks. its the same radiator that went with the ex motor. so is changing
the radiator, to an si radiator or better, help to cool the engine more efficiently?
