Mine seems to handle stop & go w/o overheating or even getting worrisomely
high on the gauge. That is with a crank hole but it is a nearly new core
and a tropical fan. I used to have an electric 'helper' fan but ditched
it when I added the tropical fan as that seemed enough help.
That said -- have not tried 40 miles in 2 hours -- not a situation that is
likely to arise in little Tucson. I do often drive from 100+ on the valley
floor to 9000' in 24 miles or so -- but I can keep moving which makes all
the difference.
