Heat Soak -Reply

[Adrian Jones <AdrianJones@compuserve.com>]

Matt,
 Thanks for the suggestion to check the coolant.  Yeah, that's the first
thing I checked, along with checking the oil level.  Both were OK.
I've heard of "heat soak" before so I expect the temp to increase somewha=
t
when the engine, and fan, is turned off.  However, the needle really shot=

way off scale.
Well, if there is nothing I can do about it and it seizes up someday, at
least it'll save me the bother of replacing the big end bearing, which it=

needs.

Regards,     Adrian
