    78 nyb running cold.

    Yea I have been to keep it up.The car I'm usually driving this time of year I keep half covered. This Yorker does the same as ur wagon all summer. I just know it made hotter temps in the same climate with no coverage.

    78 nyb running cold.

    Awesome it's the same weather here was 4 above today when I drove it. and I've ran in this same weather with success before just earlier in the year of course. I had good performance mileage and heat the last 2 falls and it was sitting up at half on the gauge running the car in the same outside...

    78 nyb running cold.

    Thank you I disregarded the rad. that's something I definitely overlooked as it looks good and no leaks. I will definitely check that when I get a chance. luckily it hasn't seen much salt in its lifetime and this is the first december ive driven it but we haven't used any salt yet as we're...

    78 nyb running cold.

    170-180 right now. It used to sit right at half. And perform better with better mileage definitely used to be hotter up near 195-200. I know it's december but we're having the easiest winter I've even seen here in Regina. It's like fall weather and the last 2 falls I was sitting up at half...

    78 nyb running cold.

    Yes that what was very interesting I'll be checking that when I get a chance here. I was worried about that with the clutch. My old one was leaky and engaged hard from startup so I changed it.. I was surprised when there was little difference so I became suspicious of a dud. as for removing it...

    78 nyb running cold.

    Tested a few times while I was out 170-180 it doesn't run as good as when it was reaching full temp and it has less heat than it did. I ran sender wire to ground and got full hot so I figured the gauge was working right.

    Can't seem to get this thing up to temp. Completely stock cooling system. Sender,wiring and gauge have all been verified. New fan clutch. Fan direction is correct. Have tried multiple 195 stats made sure they were centered in the housing. Hoses check out. water pump felt good. it's not set...

    Duplicolor Trunk paint questions

    Awesome I'll consider the delco product is it correct that it doesn't need clear or did you happen to test it? Also if you have some pics of the duplicolor that would be much appreciated

    This is also where I read about it. One guy had success without sealing it even using the older product but others did not so I'm a little lost on that but here it is Thread 'TRUNK SPATTER PAINT' TRUNK SPATTER PAINT

    Duplicolor Trunk paint questions

    I would think it helps with wear too but I'm more worried about it actually wiping off after it gets wet. I've been reading all over about these sprays and found alot of people saying they needed to be cleared for that reason. Looking for the few threads about it on here and I did find one test...
