I will be back out that way in the middle of july, so I best have it sorted by then.
I lived in southern NM for 15 years. I know what you went through. Every vehicle ran hot and the air-cooled motorcycle ran very hot. I never saw a semi with the radiator covers closed during the summer. Had to have all the cooling available. Air Dams were popular in Carlsbad for the Honda and small car people.
