List,

I know alot about aircooled, but am feeling my way along on the vanagons. I
have a new (to me) 87' Syncro, and it's running too cool. I know this
because I have 4 vanagons, and the other 3 run in the middle of the temp
gauge, AND have much better heat.

I suspected the thermostat was bad, so I replaced it last weekend, and still
have the same symptoms. Does anyone have any thoughts on what the problem
could be? If I'm driving on the highway and pull over to let it idle for 5
min, the temp climbs to the "normal" range, then the fan kicks on to keep it
there, but as soon as we are travelling over 30mph the temps drop to barely
register on the gauge, and the heat is barely noticable (like an aircooled
:-)  ).

Anyone?

I know I can put a cover on the radiator, or part of it, but my other
vehicles don't have this issue, and it is annoying being winter and all
that!
