Subject:      Bought an Infared Thermometer....now what????
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

Hello all:

In an effort to figure out my overheating problem (see my post from yesterday (1990 Carat Overheating Saga) I took it in the shorts today at radio Shack and shelled out $40 for a spiffy Infared Thermometer (you should have seen the salesmans face when I stuck it in my ear to get a reading!) Fortunately I went next door to Walmart and bought the battery for .96 as opposed to the $4 Radio Shack wanted!

Anyway....I am not a mechanic and the 2.1 coolant system is a nebulous concept to me...so can any of you recommend where I should aim this little devil and what I should be looking for. (My 1990 has been overheating going UPHILL despite coolant top-off/bleeding, etc. If you didn't read my post I can pmail it to you)

Any and all suggestions appreciated. And please...no wisecracks about where I should aim it....

Cheers! kevindobrien@yahoo.com
