I'll see what the tension on the belt is when I top up the coolant later on Bobb... the only thing is I have no idea what the tension is supposed to be so I'd just be guessing...

Last night I topped up tranny fluid (which leaks when the car sits too long) and engine oil was fine so as soon as I check and top up the rad she should be good to go for a drive before dusk... It won't be the same as the 30 degrees we're supposed to get Sunday but hopefully I get an idea how hot she is gonna get anyway...

As for the 160 degree thermostat, sounds like a good idea for this old beast to keep her a bit cooler... I'll see how she acts when I have her out tonight and go from there.

Are you going to be around this evening by chance, Bruce?
