Um.... Well... The rain cleared. Gorgeous day. Pulled my aluminum thermostat housing in order to install a BMW fan temp switch in the plugged port and replace my 180 deg thermostat with a 195 deg. Unfortunately, my dumbass had previously blocked said port with a steel plug. Spend an hour massaging the plug loose. Long story short, the fan switch is installed and now my awesome Volvo fan is completely automated. On at 195 and 210 degrees (low/high respectively). Just in time too seeing as I have forgotten twice in as many days to manually actuate the fan and almost overheated!
That is the good news. I found a leak in my fancy Ron Davis radiator on the passenger side tank. Gotta find someone to fix it tomorrow so I will yank it in the parking lot tonight and hope for the best. This may be the one thing that prevents me from going to Tellico next week. I am running out of time as I leave for a mission on Friday and won't return until 2 days before Tellico. Wish me luck.
Oh, and I am pretty sure my alternator is going bad. I hear a light yet deep metal on metal sound cycling on and off and nobody in Charleston has one used.
