-fad is absolutely right ... I left the radiator out as a separate issue, however, it is pretty clear that, if the radiator is not operating efficiently, that the increase in airflow might be enough to overcome a lack of efficiency ... however, this seems a longer shot in 45F weather ... the engine should have a VERY hard time overheating in this kind of weather.
