cooling problem with v8 pinto
pegasus2050:
my son's pinto has a 3 row radiator in it but still reaches about 220 to
230 degrees in hot weather unless running about 30 to 40 mph. we
also have a 16 inch electric fan mounted in front of the radiator push-
ing air. not enough room to mount it behind the radiator to pull air. any
help with this problem would be welcomed. thanks pegasus.

Try using a "water wetter" in the coolant.
