Wayne,
I tried that, twice. I also boiled it and tried it. I have this visceral feeling, as posted earlier by Steve R. that I have the wrong pump. My car has never run as cool and as consistant as it does now.
Yesterday I spent some time on the road tweeking the timing and the carb. I was in traffic for some time and actually had the fan shut off (which I've never been able to do). The temp stayed a constant 150-155. While in traffic it crept up to 180 and I turned on the fan. I dropped quickly back down to 150. I suspect I am now going to replace my 160 therm with a 180.
I can idle that car all night and it will never go over 150. Before it would get hot the minute I got into traffic, even with the fan on all the time.
