Slant Temperature

Dammit Dan, why would anybody want to diagnose something? That's too much like WORK.
Totally. »snaps gum« And like, the cooling system can be in perfect condition and the gauges can work fine, but if the ignition timing is late or the exhaust is restricted or the camshaft timing is wrong, the engine will run hot. Which is, like, totally not fair because it means diagnosis requires more than affirming that there's coolant and it's not leaking and it's green.
