I don't think the rating relates to "output of compressed air" - I think it's more along the lines of "power output of the electric motor". From that point of view, 2.5hp comes out to 15.6 amps, whi

You should be able to lay on a very thin bead of solder along the slit. This will most likely require at least a 30watt soldering iron, one of the 60W guns would likely be best. Clean the metal well

This is what I would call an "invented rationalization". There is no way that more coolant flow will give less cooling. It is a thermodynamic impossibility. Much more likely is that the lack of a th

No, it isn't possible. The coolant inside the radiator is in constant thermal contact with the inside of the radiator metal. What difference does it make whether one coolant particle at 100C or ten

Actually the net change is rarely zero, since most radiators are over-capacity by design (MGs excepted, perhaps). Increasing the flow rate of the coolant can get more of the radiator up to temperatu

While what you say is true, there is another effect that you are neglecting. Not only does the coolant go through the radiator twice as fast, it goes through the ENGINE twice as fast, and thus picks
