Subject:      overheating warning light flashes immediately on 83.5 V'go
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII"

I am back on the list after a 2-3 year hiatus, hoping someone has come up with a surefire solution to my chronic problem in the interim. I was away from the V'gon for a year. Came back to the US. Started her right up w/no problem, as a nice neighbor had kept the battery charged and turned her over from time to time. BUT I do not dare take her out on the road (I have come home on the back of a AAA truck too many times) b/c the temperature gauge pegs over and the warning light begins to flash the minute I turn on the engine. I cannot believe that the engine is actually overheating.

Any suggestions will be more than welcome.

Thanks in advance. Good to be back.

Woody Halsey Haverhill, MA
