Running Hot.

Hi all,
Just to let you know what to do in case your 4B is running a little hot lately.
First of all move to the antartic then it will never run hot, Just Joking.
This advice is for all 4B's.
First check the thermo fan and if it is an oil type clutch job and is not working up to scratch then it CAN be re oiled. Another member posted pics on same. Fairly simple for the do it yourselfer. Tedious but worth the effort Oil is available from Toyota.
Then remove the radiator, takes a little time but is not too hard. Using compressed air blow out the rubbish embeded in the radiator, flush the interior with clean water and re install.
Most vehicles these days have the Air con condenser in front of the radiator and you will be surprised how much junk gets between this and the water radiator.
Clean all this junk out using swmbo vac cleaner then blow the rubbish from the core of the condenser before reinstalling the radiator. This should fix most overheating.
I did all this on my 4.2td Patrol in about 4hrs all up and bingo all ok.
Also some of my club members have done the same to their vehicles both Nissan and Toyota.
Just My 2 bobs worth.
