Thanks, I'll have a look when weather permits.

Weather does not permit it right now. Warm for the time of year (10°C) and the occasional drizzle. But the road was full of debris, I had to dodge a tree branch 7 feet long that snapped off in the storm and dropped right in front of me 2 seconds ahead. Slammed the brakes, drove over it anyway; no apparent damage.

The TEC is not as efficient as a an A/C style pump but it is light and fast. I just need it when the coolant is still cold... and it is an experiment done in part just for the sake of tinkering about

For education go to people unlike yourself.
