Hi guys,
The other day i pulled everything back out, removed the thermostat and the mounts, then painted the mounts:
Put some rubber grommets in the top mounts, and reused the rubbers on the bottom mounts:
Then gave it a good flush before filling it up with coolant and distilled water.
As i expected it takes a fair bit longer to warm up with no thermostat, especially with the small fan going constantly, but after refilling last night for my second worst tank ever i decided that no thermostat is a bad idea with the new much more efficient radiator.
I have been talking to a few people and researching LPG setups and looking into way of running the piping so that there is hot water running through the vaporizer constantly to stop it freezing up, hopefully i can get the thermostat back in asap without freezing up the vaporiser.
Im also going to hook up a temp controlled switch to the first fan so it only comes on once its warmed up, the second fan il leave on the switch to use in case im stuck in traffic on a hot day or the temp switch screws up or something.
Today i also pulled out all of the dash wiring to tidy it up and add a few more wires for the thermofans and some other bits and bobs.
Thanks for lookin
