234F for the cooling system is not an accomplishment except maybe desert
driving.

Subject: Air flow = Got tools?

When we first added the tool box out front we had temp issues. Listers here
talked us through a new two speed fan and water wetter product. Now with an
auxiliary temp/rpm/hp/torq gauge on the dash we can see that it seldom gets
above 234. We also added a manual fan switch to the dash so we could act on
it if the sensor failed.
Thanks listers for all your help!
