@hijetoffroad4757 Жыл бұрын

What you should do to keep the truck cool, is add a five gallon container to the truck filled with a 75/25 mix of water and rubbing alcohol. Then plumb that to a pump, and then to a spray bar under the top front of the radiator. When the truck is getting hot turn on the pump and spray the water onto the front of the radiator, the fan will suck the water in and cool the engine. I do this setup for all the RVs I have owned, it will knock at least 15 degrees off the engine temp when pulling hard under load up mountain passes.
