I've been following Janie's post for some info, but have some different questions. It only overheats on the trail. Here are some details
- added an electric pusher fan, but still overheated this weekend on the trail, ended up with what I believe to be vapor lock
- radiator looks new, only a few bits of scale, tubes look open and clear, no leaks
- fan clutch seems to be okay
- hoses are fairly new
- fan is as close to radiator as possible
- running 50/50 coolant to water mix
My questions are:
1)What/where is the best water pump? I'm thinking it may be going south and would prefer a hi-perf unit as replacement.
2) What/where is the best deal on a 4 core radiator and how can I identify what I have? It appears to have a towing package so the radiator should already be beefed up. This is a last resort because of the cost.
I really don't want to have to run the heater while riding at the Invasion.....again.
Thanks for any replies.
