Haspin Shake down

Shouldn't be spending the night unless I break really bad. The explosions at camp and raging fires usually keep them away at night.

So what's the plan? Who all is going on Sunday? 50% chance of rain, too.

Leavin shop at 8:30 for haspin as long as rain is not falling at that time. I will call Pete at haspin and get a weather update that morning.

Any ideas on why it is overheating? Clutch fan or electric? Mud in radiator fins

It has a clutch and electric fan. When it started overheating I replaced the water pump and thermo but, still randomly overheats. Jfiscus said maybe air pocket in head to remove temp sensor to bleed air out. Not tried yet. Might pull radiator to inspect.

Sounds like you have a good plan.

Pulled radiator looked ok, I found a small crack in my reservoir. My reservoir is pressurized from factory with no radiator cap. I will try to repair. New one is $40.00

check throttle position sensor if it is bad it will make motor run lean thus run hot
