Hola Listees -

There's been a ton of talk about head gaskets lately.  How closely is
hot engine temp related to the HG?

My Syncro occassionally runs hot, primarily when I start driving.  The
temp gague will go to about 75 - 80% - close to hot.  Usually it will
cool down after a few minutes.  If I'm climbing upward it happens a
bit more dramatically and will cool once I pass the apex.

I don't know if I have a block in some hose somewhere or if it is
something else.  A mechanic (not affiliated to the list) told me this
was normal.

Any advice / strategies to help cool the beast down.

Regards

Paul
