Downtimes '72 Scamp - the official thread and introduction
Finally finished the wiring for the electric fans. Had a tough time finding a spot for everything, it's a little cramped under the hood. Filled up the radiator with some of BeCool's BeCoolant and added a bottle of Purple Ice for good measure. Fired her up and waited for her to warm up so I could check the fans. They came on right where I expected them to (185), so I went for a test drive. It's been unseasonably cool here in Texas this week, yesterday's high was about 90, but she still held no higher than 185-190 on the drive. So far so good. Need to recheck the timing and wait for a good hot day to give her a proper shakedown.
