For the newbies : This started with a running temperature too close to red.

The thermostat was faulty , a new one cured that. . Being a cheapscate I dicided to use no antifreeze for the summer.

Then the senior wizards told me to use Glycol  ----Yes sir -   in it went. With plain water the needle stayed "high noon" straight up.   Now it stays two white marks to the left of that.

Were the fellas right who told me that cooling was better with glycol than with plain water ? ---- sure looks like it.              Hagar.

PS:  I actually passed a Westfalia going up that long hill with the double yellow lines.Man what power.
Mark Shepherd  what do you think ?.
