Thread-topic: RE: cooling fans
My temp gauge was running  just above the "K"  (Made in UK) which is,
well, too hot and has been creeping up over the years. I got a tropical
fan a year or two ago, but that didn't seem to help much.

So I took out the radiator Sat, and it was really plugged up with bugs,
you could barely see through it. So I blasted it out with air first,
straightened bent fins, and then with the garden hose. Back on the car,
(I replaced all the hoses at the same time) and viola! temp gauge now
down to the right of the "M"

Clean radiator really does help a lot
