I know what you are talking about. I did not have any trouble with the heat
until I put in the 180 degree thermostat last week. Now, the heat seems to
affect my engine temp more significantly. The manual says NOT to change the
stat with anything other than what is specified or improper engine cooling
is likely to occur. By the way, when you say the engine heat builds up, what
kind of reading are you getting on your temp indicator? I have been meaning
to ask you about that.
