Actually go visit Mak board. There's a current thread there that is a lot more sane than the recent one here...

Welcome back RJ! And I have said more than enough on this subject and am going to keep my face shut for a change.

I would be concerned about plugging the radiator up with lime and scum from the evaporating water.
I read a great idea on the MAK board of using the bus heater to help cool the engine.
I had the bus air removed but the fan and heater core are in the bus. If I could redirect the heater output to the outside of the bus a large amount of BTU should be removed from the engine cooling system. The heater was designed to heat the whole bus in freezing winter conditions so it must have a fairly high heat removal capacity.
Has anyone done this and how well does it function? |

Greg, properly done the evaporation takes place in the open air, not on the radiator. In many years of use, I never detected any buildup on my radiator.

Greg, I posted that on the MAK board about the heater core idea. I think it was Bill K., He is in New England, but I dont remember where. He has an MC8 that he put a 8V92 in. He helped me over the phone with some great advice about running my new a/c lines for my dash air. I had his phone number but I have misplaced it. Bill, are you out there? |
