Re: %#$@%$@ whats up with my mileage?

so i checked/topped off my fluids today, tranny,oil, coolant etc. and i noticed that at least 25% if not at least 35%, of all the cooling "fins" are gone in the radiator, its not leaking but its making me wonder if the temp gauge is accurate. will running hot kill mileage a lot?
