Make sure that the fins on the clutch are clean or the coupling may not get hot enough to work as it should. Also check if there is any looseness in the bearings when moving the fan with your fingers. If this link works it will have the Viscofan description and testing. http://www.startekinfo.com/StarTek/outside/12265/disc_2/program/123avi2.htm Last edited by My Stuff Owns Me; 04-01-2018 at 02:20 PM. |

The pressure will raise the boiling point. It will not make the engine run cooler.

I think that the design intent of the overflow tank is to keep the system sealed. Less oxygen to the coolant means less rust. |

Stick one end into the coolant and the other to the engine/chassis ground..

I ended up going with a radiator/tank set up the same as OEM. The fans are all working properly as well; I can attest that the aux fan did continue running after shutting the engine down for a bit.
Temps were in great shape today. I drove it hard with the AC running, left her running, everything seems solved for now. |

Isn't that the truth? Amazing how correctly identifying and correctly remedying the problem can make something operate as intended.

If boiling doesn't have a negative affect on cooling, what's the point in raising the boiling point?

So all things considered.. like TangoFox007 said... avoiding boiling is critical to cooling the engine....
