Saw pics of somwone who actult put in a shut off valve so he could set it for best results, Traffic, high revs ect.
Yes! That was one of the main problems with my 94, overheating. I sent it to Mark (for that and other work). He did his normal radiator service ......then put a washer type affair in the by pass line at the T- housing. Instant fix. The car runs in the low 190's.....down from 220/230 before the ''fix''.
