Not calling into question your mechanical prowess, but it's a quick check before pulling the head off.... The new electric fan is moving air the right way isn't it? I mean it is pulling/pushing air

The key here seems to be that you are loosing coolant. As you have been working on the cooling system, the first thing I'd do is check/tighten all the hose clamps to ensure they're not leaking under

So how hot is "too hot"? All winter my S1 ran under 190. Now, going uphill on warmer days I see it climb to 200 or more. At what point does one start to worry? Lloyd

My wife and I would like to go the Invasion II - but I can't get my '66 SV to be cool. Currently, I'm having some overheating problems. No previous overheating problems, of course, till I did a litt

I just went through this. Mine was a blown head gasket, but it did blow out the overflow tube. One way to check for antifreeze in the cylinders is to pull a spark plug and crank over the engine (with

Try taking out your thermostat and see if it runs cool. It should run colder without it. Also, try your old thermostat and see what happens. Jan -- ______ ______ _______ / ____/ / ____/ / ___ / / /_

NEGATIVE on removing the thermostat! If the ambient air temp is too high, removing the thermostat will cause the engine to run hotter not cooler. If you remove the thermostat in the summer, you will

The thermostat regulates how much cool water flows through the engine. The radiator ALWAYS losses heat, so if the flow is not restricted the engine can't reach the operating temperture (160-180 degr

Not so, The radiator is a more efficient "cooler" than the engine is a "heater." This is because heat transfer from the radiator is via convection (it really should be called a convector not a radiat

Does it leak out, where you can see it? Or does it just vanish? If it overheats without any external leak, and it is OUT?LOW? on coolant, it sounds like a heat gasket. It could be blowing out the ove

Rob: Your new electric fan could, by itself, be causing a problem under some circumstances. (might not, but check it out) If you run the fan at highway speeds, the fan is probably blocking more air t

Don't remove the thermostat. The main purpose is to get the engine up to operating temperature quickly. The other purpose is a slight restriction so the coolant that is being pumped into the radiato
