I am trying to diagnosis an on going problem with my TR3 cooling system.  It
would be very helpful to have some baseline numbers on the heat gain from
a stock system.

What I am interested in is how quickly a stock system gains heat at a stand
still idle.  Could anyone (or everyone :-)) note the ambient temperature and
how many minutes it takes your car to reach say 170, 180 and 190?   If you
were otherwise doing tuning work, it should just be a matter of writing down
the information and forwarding it.

I will be at Summer Party and VTR with a digital thermometer and asking
anyone willing to let me take some measurements and will be happy to post
the results thereafter.  My thought is that the bigger the sample, the
better.

Thanks in advance.
