So the introduction of the shovel from the frame to the radiator produces a hurricane velocity up and through the radiator on the BJ8. That alone should be sufficient to cool water. But it does not move the water very fast through the engine back to the radiator, especially under low rpms. So I have introduced an electric water pump (Aussie idea, as it does get hot down under) to keep the flow of water through the radiator to the engine through the water pump and back to the radiator. it adds 150 liter per minute to the trickle produced by the mechanical pump. I fact one of the listeners commented that he could turn off the fan and just keep the water pump operating on highway speeds. It was easy to install using existing hoses cut in half going from the bottom of the radiator up to the inlet on the engine, and 2 x 1/8<sup>th</sup> diameter holes in the thermostat to allow the water to flow during engine warm up.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:18.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:18.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif'>After a run, I keep both the fan/EWP operating for a few min after the engine shut down which helps to reduce flashing of the hot water.
