Re: still running hot!
Guest_
ok latest update, drained the radiator again, filled with water, flushed again, drianed filled with coolant.

according to local radiator guy as ive used 2 different ypes of rtv sealant, one black on thermo housing and clear on water pump, there is probaly a chmical reaction with the cheaper rad coolant i used.

he recomended this before pulling apart for head gasket.
ALso noted the fan blde pitch on the clutch fan looked wrong.

ends up being the previous owner mounted it backwards to clear the radiator as it protudes further forward. mucked around with moutning and guess what....

temps droped 15deg f when utp to 80 kmh. have to try on freeway but looks like its solved almost (touch wood) hopefully no damage has occured from running hot since it was rebuilt 4 years ago and the previous owne doping 30,000kms like this in hot weather.
