> Another dream : Can I Crank it up and run it for five > minutes without the radiator attached? 5 minutes is way too long without coolant; a sure recipe for a cracked head or worse. You might be able to get that much if you find a way to fill it with water and top it up when it starts boiling. But even that is a risk, IMO, both to the engine and you. It may eject boiling water just as you look at it and a face full of boiling water can ruin your whole day! -- Randall ** triumphs@autox.team.net ** Archive: http://www.team.net/pipermail/triumphs http://www.team.net/archive |
