Subject:      TIICo - temperature light
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"

All, I'm a new TIICo conversion fella.  I've got my first
high-speed-interstate-travel run under my belt (FWIW, I like the engine
a lot.  The extra power is very noticeable).  

My question concerns the temperature light setting.  It seems like the
temperature on the new engine runs a little hotter than the stock
engine.  In fact, the ambient temps were in the 80's as we made our run
up to Lake Placid.  The indicated temperature settled out just barely
within the "light blinking" range.  By barely, I mean barely...an
imperceptible movement on the temp gauge itself.  The light would come
on for a while, and then go out on a downhill run, etc, etc.

I'm wondering if there is a way to change the blinking light temperature
setpoint without screwing up the coolant level alarm on the same light.

Ideas, anyone?
