Subject: New Tiico engine Overheating HELP!

Dall-garnit here I go AGAIN at the list!
FRIDAY night cut short by an Overheating Tiico I-4
200 miles on my new Tiico I4 and Ive got problems
already...just my luck.

Every since I got it the little white needle on the
temperature guage rides at 12 o'clock JUST over the
idiot light. Tonight it decides to go almost all the
way up to HOT. Outdoor temp is 65F degrees. So I
parked and went down to feel the radiator and it felt
cold. I felt the upper radiator feed hose its
luke-warm.
Luckily im close to home when this happens. I cant
hear the radiator fan(not that i ever could hear it)
so I assume its not working, but if im driving without
stopping much then the fan doesnt matter as much..no?

Thanks

Phil 84' Westy
