Re: Radiator for my 51 3800.
Ok thanks. Any one else out there. let me know what to look for etc. Mine is the original and I just put a 250 and a 2004r in and it takes a while but it gets a little warmer than I like . I took a infrared heat gun and scoped the radiator and then the head, thermostat housing , and even where the heat sender is and even though the radiator tank is about 185 the head etc is much warmer - a lot warmer than I like - water pump and impeller check out , as does the thermostat-so I figure it is not flowing enough water .
Sound off guys you won't hurt my feelings - better to do it once than twice, etc. |
