Re: Overheating 200 1981

I know nothing about this....

But I do know many people do a conversion early Jaguar engien to american motor most of them have the over heat problem... not enought air....fan is to cool down the big V8 motor.....

Now back in the 1975 remember the Pantera ??? big V8 motor very fast car but they over heat .... the company do many thing but can not solve the problem.... then by accident they move the cooling fan back away from the radiator by 1 inch I think... the car over heat problem is solve...

so the problem was the cooling fan are seating to close to the radiator...

You may want to tried this.... oftend in convertion many people us a bigger radiator holding more cooland .......

how about tried to add a extra oil cooler.... this will help the motor runing cool...

I love the Berton they are the best looking volvo on the road...

My english are poor but I hope this will help....

Or just get on the web search engien and type over head may be something may show up///
