Good points, Chuck and Glen...but yeah, I think the key was slowing down the flow that was coming from the main impeller of the Water Pump. I think that when the T-stat was closed, there was quite a lot of flow coming back through my bypass hose and adding the restriction got things under control. As far as using a 1/4" hose..I would assume that would work OK considering the hole in the center of the washer is about that...more like 5/16".
Really appreciated your nice comments, too, Chuck.
For the record, this was my view this morning....first ride to work after 5 Months of labor....sweet reward:
I'll check the Harrison tank here at lunch and see how the level looks. My ride to work is 45mi, so that should be a decent distance to see if there was any coolant loss at all..
Update: Checked the coolant level at Lunch and it was rock solid!
