Ladies and Gentlemen:
I always enjoy and appreciate the groups knowledge to help us solve our
individual problems with our Morgans and seeing that I've got another
one to solve, I thought Id ask for your opinions.
The subject is cooling and I know there has been lots of discussion
around that general topic. Let me add a couple of different wrinkles to
the situation. First off, my car is a flat-rad Plus 4 and the cooling
difficulties that Im having only seem to occur at highway speeds above
about 45MPH. The car is currently resting comfortably awaiting spring,
but on my way home from the Vintage Races at Watkins Glen last
September, the car overheated, and afterwards with the coolant level
restored, I wasnt able to drive the car above about 45 before the temp
started to climb again. I did drive the car again on a couple of
occasions at lower speeds and didnt have a problem.
Is this a parts replacement problem, or can it possibly be solved just
by flushing the cooling system?
Thanks for any help.
Sincerely
Bob Tescione
