Please send me info on the electric pump and pictures on the =
installation.  Sounds as if it could be a good way to keep the down.  I =
am ready to try any good idea.

=20

I already have a checked everything in the coolant system including the =
original type stat with a sleeve.  In fact, I have several that I bought =
from Kees to try different temperatures.

=20

Mike indicates that the pump with not handle higher pressures over 7 psi =
so I have eliminated that idea.

Thanks, everyone for your ideas.

I concur that at low RPM the flow rate is significantly reduced - as it =
should be with this type of pump - flow is proportional to speed.  On my =
BJ8 I measure oil temp and top rad. hose temp plus some other temps. =
Single gauge with switches

So, I added an electric water pump (EWP) that I manually switch on when =
approaching traffic. I use the same switch to switch on an electric fan. =
My experience is that the EWP is by far better than just an electric fan =
- you need to move the water through the rad. Very noticeable to prevent =
heat soak too when you shut down the engine and you can see the temp =
dropping.

The EWP goes in the bottom hose and is quite inconspicuous. Took about 3 =
hrs to install. In series with the mechanical pump and literature says =
little resistance when off  eg when cruising and RPM higher and EWP not =
required.

Can post photo if anyone is interested plus pump details.

Anyone tried a smaller diameter pulley on the pump?

Bob & Mike:

=20

You both may have seen my requests on overheating of my BJ8 and the =
response from the group.  As a result, I purchased an infrared =
thermometer to determine if my water gauge was giving accurate readings. =
 The thermometer gun told me that my water gauge was 30 degrees higher =
than the temperature of the sensor attached to the block.  At the same =
time, I noticed my gauge will show 120 degrees at rest instead of going =
down to 90 degrees which would indicate a 30-degree high reading.  In =
May when I leave for cool Michigan, I will send the gauge to Nisonger to =
be rebuilt.

=20

I began to test the temperature of the water going through the cooling =
system at the inlet to and outlet from the block, inlet and outlet to =
the radiator and the upper and lower hoses while the engine is running =
at idle and at 2-3 Thousand rpm.  The chart I created to record these =
temperatures allowed me to produce observations or averages because the =
flow of the water is dependent upon the rpms of the engine.  The engine =
has overheated all of the 40 years I have owned it and has only 1000 =
miles on the new speedo since rebuilding to 20 over.=20

=20

At the radiator inlet 134 outlet 85 at high rpms with electric fan =
operating.

                        inlet 103 outlet 94 at idle rpms with electric =
fan operating.=20

=20

The above temperatures are recorded at the inlet and all along the =
hoses.

=20

These temperatures indicate the pump is circulating water with =
sufficient gallons to cool the engine only when the engine is at high =
rpms.  At idle the pump does not circulate sufficient water to keep the =
engine cool.  This is especially true when you have been operating the =
engine at high speed and come down to 30 =E2=80=93 40 mph and stop and =
go traffic.  Maybe the real answer is to install an electric pump for =
constant cooling water?

=20

In the past week, I have installed a large Dorman coolant recovery tank =
and a new 7 psi 1 inch radiator cap because I learned that our radiators =
have a long neck.  Both those changes have reduced my problem of very =
high overheating and resulting boiling over.  In addition, when my water =
gauge shows 212 degrees the water temperature is actually 30 degrees =
less or approximately 185 degrees.  Also, I am not boiling over and =
loosing coolant.  Nevertheless, the engine water temperature is still =
spiking to 210 plus degrees true when coming off highway speeds. =20

=20

In my review of various sites, the radiator equipment suppliers and =
others are recommending increasing the pressure in the classic car =
systems to 15 psi plus, and coolant recovery tanks =E2=80=9Cif your =
coolant system, radiator, hoses etc. is new=E2=80=9D and therefore can =
hold the pressure.  Unfortunately, I have not found any maker of a 1 =
inch depth x 2.33 inch diameter radiator cap except our 7 psi cap so I =
can try such a pressurized system.

=20

Another suggestion on an older discussion at the British Car Forum =
indicated some of the Ontario car owners had switched to Evans Waterless =
Coolant rather than 50/50 coolant water mixture.

=20

I still have no idea why a minority of our group has overheating =
problems.  More ideas?

=20
