Subject:      One very cool van...
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII"


I took Zippy for a test drive of the new cooling system today, and man, that
is one cool van.  After idling in my driveway for 20 minutes, the temp never
even got up to halfway.  I drove on the highway a few miles, then jumped into
afternoon rush hour to see what happened.  Again, needle did not make it up
to halfway.


Thanks for everyone's help in this project.  It was the most extensive work I
have done to the van myself, and I fugure I paid myself 500-$600 in savings.


When I was done, myneighbor came over and shook my hand, and said something
to the effect of "I can't believe you did that".  I told him it was all
y'all's fault.


Will post a "lessons learned" today or tomorrow.


Once again, Thanks.
Peter
