  Guys - just a quick heads up - something to keep the banter up really -
  while driving this weekend in 100F weather my coolant boiled over  -
  apparently my coolant overflow tank cap wore out.  It was only a few
  years old but could not keep a seal.  I picked up a couple yesterday for
  $4each and thought I'd throw this out there as its a cheap spare to keep
  in the car that could prevent a costly repair in these hot summer
  months.
   
  On a similar note-something I've found this summer - a great benefit to
  having this mega cooling from the 200 20V in my car - on hot days in
  traffic w/ the A/C on - the fan is on enough for the A/C system that my
  water temps are significantly lower than when running w/ A/C off...I
  found myself running with windows open and cool (not cold) a/c in my
  face....and low water temps to boot!
