would a 38mm hd 3 row radiator keep ed fords with viscous fans cooler in summer?
with the thermostat will it matter if you drill a hole in oneside or take out the pin so its just the hole and drill annother smaller hole in thother side too? will a bigger transmission cooler in a auto model help keep it cooler? will the heater work better with a 88 or 89 degree thermostat than a 82 degree thermostat? ifso how much warmer will the heater be in winter? will it be more efficient with a 89 degree thermostat than a 82 degree thermostat? whats usually the causes of the ed model heating up to atleast 3/4 A L in the sports dashes in the ed model in summer idling with the ac but settle to half or less driving long |

DUDE YOU NEED A NEW VISCOUS FAN HUB- THATS IT FOR NOW.
THE GUYS TELLING YOU THIS DO KNOW THEIR STUFF. iF YOUR CAR GETS HOT SITTING STILL BUT NOT DRIVING ITS THE FAN HUB BECAUSE THE ONLY THING MOVING AIR OVER THE RAD WHEN THE CAR ISNT, IS THE FAN. |

A hotter thermostat can help in some cases.
A blocked radiator or fan clutch is your issue. Drop by my house if you like and I can have a look.
