How did the radiator hoses like that?

Did you use the plastic 8-blade fan with the stock fan mounting?

Dietmar is not kidding about the weather.  It has been lousy hot and humid.
Record runs of above 75-degree dewpoints.  Highs near 100.   Now we are back
to gorgeous Minnesota weather.  High fifties at night, high seventies by
day, and dewpoints in the high forties.  Heaven.
