Re: cooling issue




Paul, I am probably sounding like a cracked record, but have you checked that you have a radiator to hood seal and any other air dams in place that would direct air through the radiator instead of going around it? Any air gap on the sides between the core and the radiator support? ...........................MO

Subject: cooling issue



I've had issues keeping my car cool in stop and go traffic.  I changed
the water pump last winter to a higher flow model.  Tonight was the
first chance I've had to get it out and drive it any distance with some
stop and go in the middle.  It ran nice and cool on the highway but then
got into a little stop and go and the temp started to climb.  It only
got up to @ 2/3rds the way up the gauge but I could hear some
percolating. Then got it back out on the open road and within @ 5 miles
the temp was back to normal.  So that indicates to me that I have an
airflow problem.  Looks like I'll be shopping for a flex fan.
