Well, I'm driving my stock 71 1.7 from north AZ. To south Phoenix, and it's going to 108, or higher. My concern is heat and my engine. Never drove it with this type of hot weather. Should I have any concerns . (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

well the cable is broke at spring area, and I pulled #2 plug wire and got a piece of 1/8" tube for for drip system, and I moved the mechanizing cross bar back and forth. The flaps are in open cooling position. I could tell when the flaps were closed and open with the 1/8" tube. So at least I know the cooling flaps are open.

If your spring is in place, the flaps will default to the full open position, but I think you proved that to yourself. |
