Not surprisingly, I haven't gotten around to fixing (or diagnosing) my front
fan problem, which I detailed last week.  In lieu of this,  I've been
maximizing my other sources of air: opened the side vent windows (so much
for conversation); sometimes running the AC on the lowest setting, which
provides a surprising amount of comfort, although I suspect the flow of
"cool" air is the same on any of the dial settings; and finally, I turned
the rear heater off, and had planned to use that for air flow.  However, my
choices in air temperature from that unit seem to be warm and warmer.
Anyone else have this problem?  I was thinking that maybe the unit is just
close enough to the engine that it might not have the ability to output
somewhat cool, fresh air.  Thoughts?

Also, my speedometer went on the blink, which I don't really care about.
But, I was wondering, if I ever do decide (like in August) to fix (or have
fixed) the fan problem, would fixing the speedo at the same time represent a
cost savings?

Thanks as always.

Incidentally, I'm committing the ultimate Land Cruiser sacrilege this
weekend: attending a Land Cruiser outing sans Land Cruiser, and with
Vanagon.  Ha!  The Great Smokey Mountain Trail ride is this week in Tellico,
TN, and I can't bear to take my truck on those trails.  And it just seems
silly to sleep uncomfortably all weekend in the back of my (I'll admit,
pristine) Land Cruiser, when I have a Vanagon.  I'll be very unpopular for
sure, but my partner's ride is a 1972 FJ55, so I hope that will distract
folks from asking where my truck is, and what the hell that vehicle is that
I'm driving.  But I digress...
