BAD MECHANICS - Thermostat and Radiator Fan Blade
OK! PROGRESS REPORT on my mal-mechaniced 67 Barracuda.
Had a routine eye exam, and they discoverd a detaching Retina in my good (left) eye.
So, glad I had the Barracuda at my fav dealer, as I have no depth perception for a while.
They found a port on the manifold for the aftermarket temp sensor.
So, That allowed them to put in the 180 degree thermostat.
Called a local radiator shop with a good rep, and they weren't too busy, so drove down yesterday afternoon.
By this morning it was done......moved the upper radiator port near the extreme driver's side, installed a molded rubber hose, and put the 18 inch fan back on.
Even driving it back from my fav dealer 40 miles away with the 16 inch fan, the temp never got past 190.
AND I HAVE HEAT!!!!! :steering:
We'll see ow it does whwn the wqeather warms up.
Now on to the rear squeeking brakes; before I get to the Kicback cable.
