Tom's cooling problem

["John Hofstetter" <hofs@domain.elided>]

Tom,
The RS thermostat would be a really good place to start. Changing only
the thermostat made my standard-cooling-system-test canyon this Spring
a piece of cake this year, whereas in the past I've overheated at the
very slow idling-up-the-mountain speed.

It can't hurt to put in one of the correct Robert-Shaw type
thermostats
either.  If it doesn't have that style now, you'll be surprised how
much it
can boost the cooling system efficiency.  This thermostat helps to
properly
block off the bypass hose... especially critical at low coolant
flows... to
force more coolant through the radiator.

John L.
