210ºF Is The New 180ºF

[silver_bullet]

That will hopefully be the ticket!

Had to do more metalwork before paint.
Thinks......might need to make holes with flaps
on the right side.
Wiring tomorrow.

I was wondering about that. I have dual fans so I have enough surface area to not need flaps but it might help - especially if if heats up at freeway speed

[malc]

This morning I wired the fan to two relays, one turns the low speed fan on at 185 the other relay is
operated by a switch......me.

Got the car started and let it idle, it idled up to 185 when the low fan turned on......
in just a few minutes the temp was coming down and this is where it stabilized.

Hopefully you got it! nice install!

Looks good to me.

Drove the car yesterday, never went over 180.

[malc]

The was some collateral damage caused by my last high temperatures drive......

Yesterday I see I have no speedometer....be dead......

Here´s the reason.

Maybe I need a "speedometer cable gauge" do Autometer do one ?

that's no bueno....

[malc]

Bueno is driving today in 91 heat and the temp needle pegged at 180 even some time idling in traffic.
Got a slight hesitation on acceleration, sometimes like it's looking for the right gear.
Could be 'cos I'm one speedo cable minus.

Can't have it all can we ?

[malc]

Just been out to the car, raised the float levels a little itty bit.
While at it I thought.....check the pump squirters.....sure enough the passenger side was'nt working.
So I took it off.....wow I could see the "rock" blocking it.
All better now.

Not sure, but I do believe there is an app for that. I know Mapquest monitors speed somehow.

Actually it's a joke......go see "Pic of the day" thread.

There are quite a few speedometer apps for phones I had one for awhile...actual speed, average speed, route taken and time etc.
