Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}1/G8620. Contd. on the road, (air temperature 17ºC). the temperature was 55 to 60ºC, but of course, this depends entirely upon the condition under which the engine is run. The worst condition for freezing the radiator is when the car is coasted down a very long hill. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} | ||
