Re: [oletrucks] Overheats at idle

I would check your cooling system before you go too far with re
engineering the fan , I also have a '56 235 in my '51 1/2 ton and even
in sunny Tucson AZ it doesn't overheat , even with air temps over 100
deg. It gets hot all right and even after parking for a few hours it
will still be 180 deg. at start up but I haven't had any boiling or
anything like that . Just a thought.
