Mustang:
- Radiator ahead of engine, true
- Radiator Cap higher than engine, true
Pantera
- Radiator ahead of engine, true
- Radiator Cap higher than engine, true
What does front or back have to do with it? Why not jack the -front- up
and bleed air from the tubes and radiator out a radiator bleed, and in
the process raise the front of the engine slightly to get air bubbles in
the back of the heads to move forward and hopefully out the thermostat?
Sounds like a better solution to me.
Sorry, don't mean to beat a dead horse here, but I swear I saw it
breathing. :)
