Hi.

I just wanted to share,

After fixing a small radiator crack and cleaning it out properly, I also fit a tropical fan I got with the car.

It looks so small!

 

The car looks a bit like a monster. 8)

I could finally take the TR out again.

Indeed the fan works very well. I have an original radiator with its crank hole still.

And today was about 28 degrees C.

I drove roughly 70 miles at 80 mph.

My overdrive is slipping currently so I was doing that in 4th gear between 3700 and 4000 rpm.

The car was at 170-175 degrees F all the way.

When stopping in the city and slowing down it rose to about 190F for a bit.

 

I would call the fan a success. 8)
