Subject: Re: Overheated at the drive through Zoo by Moe_Vette on 2009/7/24 14:21:03 thanx pianoguy djxib, jhammons01, 95vette, billh Andy - I'm in a city called Milton Keynes (about 45 mins north of london) and thanks for the list bits - good ideas Also sounds like BillH's approach would be cost effective - spent so much on this old girl already (but never want to cut any corners). Also I would very much like to know how I might go about installing a fan switch for instant peace of mind. Guys thanks for the great step by steps - the shop here that will be doing the RAD work upon my return in a couple of months will not have worked on a vette before so I will print off your insights for them to read first. Many thanks Is there a rad-maintenance document any of you are aware of (ie things linke how to bleed, flush and maintain etc) I might take a crack at bleeding it myself Could I ask what temp you guys would think is alarmingly high? like pull over now high ? Also if the cooling is working right on a 92 vette and you are driving in at most 75 degree weather - what should the engine temp reach in traffic? Sounds like 240 degrees is not that high - but it is about here the engine consistantly stalls out .... my restoration continues .... and loving every minute of it !! Just wish there were more folks whom can work on them over here (did not realise how fortunate I am in Canada) thanks again for all your time |
