Hey John, Thanks for the Bentley tip. My first post was "rear of van hotter than surface of sun." In a nutshell, my engine and coolant temps seem to be normal (according to the temp guage and radiator fan), van's performance is excellent, but after short trips (6 miles, air temp = 75 F), the rear of the van seems way too hot. Even with the van idling, 10 seconds or so after stopping, the metal is hot enough cause me to notice something is different. (I referring to the areas between the tail lights and the license plate.)What say you, oh one who is wise in the way of digifant? TIA, Philip |
