Shop runabout

Post by jmvv »

The Caddy is laid up with a faulty cooling fan control unit, so Petrus had to step into the breach and become the shop runabout.

Yesterday's trips were 60 km to Kayalami and back and 95 km to Rosslyn and back - all on the highway.

Two windows down and the popouts open almost did a good enough job of keeping the temperature on the highway to tolerable levels - 35 degrees C in Pta North made a good case for aircon.

On the N4 I noticed that the oil temp rose to 130 degrees while it remained constant at 110 degrees running at 110 kph on the N1.
