I've been having trouble with my '73 2.0 running hot... while I was under it I realized that one of the heat exchangers doesn't have the heater hose attached, so it just allows air to escape. I temporarily plugged the hole and low and behold it now doesn't run as hot (210 after 30 minutes of 80mph highway) and it cools down quickly when I slow down.
moral of the story... check the stinkin' obvious... |
