Cooling problem revisited
Well I still have not fixed the cooling problem. In traffic today (without the a/c on) the car overheated. In fact it got to 250 before I could shut it off. So far I have bought the 3 core radiator (Godan from PepBoys), a Black Magic fan (got rid of the crappy flex fan), and changed the t-stat to a 160. I talked to a guy at the Radiator shop who said that he believed that I wasnt getting enough air flow. I also told him that I might have a standard rotation pump, which I will find out about tomorrow.
My question is which upgrade should I perform next, or try the last two at the same time:
1. Griffin 31X19 , 1" core radiator
2. a secondary pusher fan (gonna have to trim alot of material off the headlight mounting panel.
