InterNAP, and possibly others have lost power again. Word is that the ConED generator ran out of fuel, the replacement water pump on the generator was installed, but the generator failed again, and a fuel truck 6 blocks away isn't being allowed through by the authorities.

Not to mention, cooling the radiator won't help at all, considering it's the water pump that failed.

Not so much to clean it, but to act as once-through heat transfer to cool the engine. I hope you can get it going again.The radiator yes. Just try not to get the engine block too wet. Rapid cooling of a hot engine can cause the metalwork to fatigue quickly, at worst, or warp it at best. :( I know someone who managed to crack a piston shaft this way once on a regular engine.
