borrow some manifold vacuum

My Neon has had bad a bad fan control (part of the engine control module) for years. If I sit, it overheats in minutes. Once I'm moving, it's at normal temps. The radiator can't work without air going over the fins. If you have a small electric, it may not move enough. If you have a flex fan, it may not move enough (and it's dangerous). If you have no shroud, it's not enough. My point was while timing does have an effect on temps, if the system is working properly... Meaning the block's not full of casting sand, waterpump or Tstat full of silicone, or the radiator's not 1/2 plugged or pinched off... It can cope with it fine.
