Yep, Bill, I installed a 45amp monster fan and it made the most difference of all...shrouded of course. Paid waaay to much for it, of course, but that was before the Taurus fan threads.
David, have you driven your FE in traffic over hot asphalt on a 105F day? I tried it and hit 215F on the water temp. But I've noticed something in the last couple of months I should have seen before....the 200F mark is in the MIDDLE of my water gauge...could that mean that a wide variety of proper auto temps are served by the same gauge?... or that perhaps 200F is a reasonably well warmed up engine temp and I need to stop wetting my pants over temps in that general vicinity +/- 10-15 degrees?
Thanks for all the input!
Regards,
Dirk
