Sherman, I'm game but ice and snow overnight and heavy snow this a.m.
will keep the TR4 in the garage. And fresh powder will put me in the
mountains by Friday night. ;-) But I'll take a shot when time and weather
allow. On Monday the cardboard I used covered 2/3 of the radiator and
kept the gauge several degrees left of center on the drive in w/ OAT in
the 20s, and a degree or two left of center on the drive home, arguably
in the 40s. I probably will need to cover the entire radiator and wear a
hat for temps at freezing or below.
Joe Alexander got a TR3(B?) fan hub assembly to me recently, thanks
Joe!, so I'll be trying that with the yellow fan when I have the radiator
leak repaired. But I'm sure I can try your experiment first....
