Re: Todd Pheneger's overheat

[Todd Phenneger <phen9461@uidaho.edu>]

on second thoug;h, I doubt it though.  Reason is that even with no
thermostat the engine still puts out plenty of heat and with the
thermostat in and the gauge reading hot the heater puts out WAy more heat
than it normally does at lower temps.  I can run on Full Blast Full Fan
Speed on Full Hot and it just keeps pumping out like 90 degree air.  never
cools off like it usually does and most Audi's do.  At least most
4kq's.  :-)
	so I think it really is overheating but I'll check the temp.
